Involvement of local communities in New Developments

EDP, in partnership with the Centre for Social Research and Intervention (CIIS) at the Higher Institute of Social Sciences and Business Studies (ISCTE), is implementing a new methodology for conducting relations with local institutions and communities.
 
This initiative includes an internal awareness-raising activity on communicating risks and on the challenges associated with public engagement, together with the preparation of a manual of guidelines for the process of involving interested parties and building new energy generation projects.
 
This methodology is being tested at two new EDP projects in Portugal.
