纽卡斯尔市正在全面改革社区协商进程, 经过独立审查, 将过去的努力标为“接受主义”和“超能力”, 通常采用“决定和捍卫”方法。 The City of Newcastle is overhauling its community consultation process after an independent review labeled past efforts as "tokenistic" and "superficial," often following a "decide and defend" approach. 该理事会将更早地在决策中征求公众意见,就提交材料如何影响结果提供更清楚的反馈,并提高透明度,特别是当由于相互竞争的优先事项而未能采纳投入时。 The council will seek public input earlier in decision-making, provide clearer feedback on how submissions influence outcomes, and improve transparency, especially when input isn't adopted due to competing priorities. 通过教育活动将解释参与度,解决"选择偏见",并确保通过社交媒体,通讯和媒体发布提供信息. An educational campaign will explain engagement levels, address "opt-in bias," and ensure information is accessible via social media, newsletters, and media releases. 这些变化旨在通过使参与更具包容性、反应性和透明度来建立信任,因为人们担心社区的声音——特别是在纽卡斯尔500号等项目上的声音——没有得到充分的倾听。 The changes aim to build trust by making engagement more inclusive, responsive, and transparent, following concerns that community voices—especially on projects like the Newcastle 500—were not adequately heard.
