‘People & participation’ is based on Involve’s successful book by the same name which was launched in 2005. The book provides a useful summary of participatory methods and practice but given the number of methods and speed of the development of new methods, it is impossible for a printed publication to stay accurate for long.
The reason for transferring ‘People & participation’ to the web is to allow the creators to maintain more, and more up to date information about participation. It also allows use the site user to add their knowledge and experience making the site a truly collaborative experience, something that a book simply cannot do.
