Involving communities in deliberation

A report on findings from 3 citizens’ juries on onshore wind farms in Scotland.

This report is one of the most comprehensive studies of citizens’ juries conducted to date and a first on the topic of wind farm development. It “analyses central dimensions in deliberative studies (opinion change, learning), but also the operational side to explore the challenges of designing and facilitating deliberative public engagement in practice.”
