How we can help
Understand the system.
Organize the response.
Governance & coordination
Clarify roles and connect public bodies, delivery organizations and community partners.
Policy & programme advice
Develop recommendations and programme options tailored to local circumstances.
Implementation planning
Define responsibilities, resources, sequencing and measures of progress.
A practical mandate
Scope the work around the decision.
National, regional and local perspectives
Water safety can involve public facilities, open water, visitor settings, schools, community education and emergency preparedness. An engagement begins by defining the relevant places, people and decisions.
A deliverable people can use
The aim is an agreed action plan: a documented starting point, a prioritized programme of work, named responsibilities and a measurement approach. Research and validation are part of the mandate where evidence is incomplete.
Working together
A clear beginning.
A useful result.
Start with the decision.
Identify the community, water settings, timetable and question the work needs to answer.
Make the scope practical.
Agree the evidence to review, the people to involve and the deliverables the team will use.
Prepare for implementation.
Connect recommendations with responsibilities, priorities and a way to track progress.
From expertise to public policy
Knowledge that
helps shape change.
