Participants
Engagement Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work, published by the RIBA in January 2024, states: ‘Participants refers to stakeholders actively involved in a project or activity, typically through collaboration and engagement, as part of the decision-making process (linked to levels of engagement) from RIBA Work Stage 2 onwards. However, some participants might be more active at RIBA stage 0 or 1. Ensure that participants are an inclusive, diverse and representative sample; participants should be allowed to self-identify and define who they represent. Where available and subject to the participants’ involvement, consider including reciprocal cash/non-cash payments to participants in budgets to compensate for their time and value their contributions.’
