The City of Toronto announced that it would be reviewing its public engagement activities to include more meaningful opportunities for Torontonians to engage with city issues, services, strategies and decisions.

To that end they’ve invited the public to provide feedback on their experience with municipal engagement initiatives through an online survey located here. It closes Aug. 31.

“The city would like to hear from those who have participated in engagement activities in the past, including taking a survey, attending a public meeting, joining a committee or helping shape City decisions in other ways," the city said in a news release.

"The city would also like to hear from individuals who have not participated in its public engagements before to learn why -- what barriers may have prevented participation and what the city could do to support participation in the future."

On top of the survey, there will be interviews, group and public feedback and work with engagement consultants.

There is a particular focus too on looking at individuals who have not been able to participate in these calls to action before, specifically to learn what barriers prevented participation.

The feedback from all this will inform future city engagement strategies with findings expected to be posted to the City’s public engagement web page in early 2023.
