Engaging Communities Through Uncertainty
The Sunshine Coast Council (SCC) and the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC), in south-east Queensland Australia, have undertaken a collaborative research project to investigate multi-modal approaches to community engagement.

Thucydides’ account of it may move us…
