Assessing the effects of public participation processes from the point of view of participants: significance, achievements, and challenges

Abstract: Public participation practices are now common and recognized as a way of including a broader range of interests and social values in forest management. However, we know little about their real benefits. This article presents the results of a study aimed at developing a deeper understanding of the diverse impacts of public participation and, in particular, of forest-related deliberative forums (i.e. committee types of processes). The study is based on an analysis of data collected from 137 respondents-participa… Show more

“…The processes and procedures used by the committee should ensure fairness in decision making from the perspective of patient and public representatives (2628;30;31). This criterion may assess whether committee decisions recognize outcomes that are valued by patients and which patient advocacy groups, if any, the public would prioritize for funding decisions.…”

“…In fact, there are a number of examples of mechanisms for such a role in Québec (Wyatt et al 2010b), notably through co-management arrangements (Rodon 2003) and with the Cree (LaRusic 1995, Feit and Beaulieu 2001, Rynard 2001) and the Algonquin of Barrier Lake (Notzke 1994). However, these cases are few when compared with the large number of non-decisional processes, as illustrated by the two studies presented here and in other studies (Nadeau et al 2004, Martineau-Delisle andNadeau 2010). Only a few cases among the 693 forest-related public participation processes identified in the last three decades or so in the Québec forest sector have formal power over decision-making (MartineauDelisle [In prep.]).…”

Buchy and Hoverman 2000, Martineau-Delisle and Nadeau 2010, Fortier et Wyatt 2014. Cependant, peu de chercheurs se sont attardés spécifiquement aux impacts de l'abolition de structures régionales sur les processus délibératifs associés à la gestion des forêts.…”

“…Dès 1987, la participation publique constitue une exigence légale qui va se mettre en place graduellement (Bouthillier et Roberge 2007, Martineau-Delisle andNadeau 2010). Elle s'inscrit dans un mouvement pancanadien appuyé par la Stratégie nationale sur la forêt du Canada élaborée en 1992 et qui a exercé une importante influence sur les régimes forestiers des provinces en menant à la généralisation des procédures de participation publique (Lecompte et al 2005, Chiasson et al 2011.…”
