4. Communication

Case studies: The Malaspina Ucluelet Research Alliance | 

4.1 Maximise access to information
Maximising access to information within the project group will help to keep the process open and transparent, increase participant’s perceptions of inclusiveness, and will capitalize on participant involvement. Agreements should also be reached among the group on the protocols for sharing information beyond the immediate project to get the most out of the learning outcomes and benefits gained.

4.2 Encourage multi-party communication
Encouraging and engaging in a dialogical approach will enhance critical awareness.
