Hi colleagues
\nI\u2019m delighted to announce the winners of the\u00a0DOING SOMETHING INTERESTING?<\/strong>\u00a0competition. (Remember? Way back in April.)\u00a0Copies of\u00a0Changeology<\/a>\u00a0are winging their way to them.
\nMy secret intention was to flush out innovative\u00a0examples I could share. I\u2019m very happy with the result.
\nIn no particular order the winners are:<\/p>\n

1) Impromptu kinder engineers, Wyndham City Council, Vic<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For\u00a0imagination and agility in speedily improvising a delightful\u00a0community engagement project on the fly.<\/span>\"Wyndham\"Wyndham
\nHere\u00a0is Cliff Eberly\u2019s description:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m thrilled to be able to share this story with you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wyndham City\u2019s Road Resurfacing Team has been doing some wonderful engagement work around the repaving and reconstruction of local roads.\u00a0 It started out with them taking the Wyndham Cruiser, Council\u2019s promotional vehicle, out to do meet and greets with local residents prior to road works.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the photos attached they connected\u00a0with a kindergarten that was affected\u00a0by the road resurfacing.\u00a0 The kids donned construction hats, high visibility vests and got up close (in a kinder safe kind of way) with the diggers while learning a bit about what Council was doing on their street.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, the engineers have reported that doing face-to-face, personal engagement with local people has dramatically decreased the number of angry phone calls they receive mid-project and increased residents’ satisfaction with the job being done.<\/span><\/p>\n

Happy to end the week on this one.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cliff<\/span><\/p>\n

2) Fall In Love With Nature on the Central Coast, NSW<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For breaking the stereotype of a conservation engagement project.<\/span>\"FLYER_FORESTYARN_6716.jpg\"
\nThis ongoing project aims to get adults into nature by mashing nature experiences with stuff we love.
\nIt was put together by a loose network of conservation professionals on the NSW Central Coast, organised by Rhiannon Anderson and managed by Sue Burton, and funded by AAEE\/CEN. They mashed conservation with tea, stories, art and knitting, listening to the trees, and listening to each other, all wrapped up in the idea of \u201cfalling in love\u201d, a theme they’ll just keep wrapping around more events. The core of the project is lean and simple, just an intriguing title, a card with a hashtag to give out at events, and chalkboards with the hash tag where people can write why they love nature on at community events. Look out for\u00a0#fallinlovewithnaturecc<\/p>\n

\"Bunny3) Bunny Boiler Challenge, Bass Coast Landcare Network and Phillip Island Landcare, Vic
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For a irresistible event.<\/span>
\n\u201cRabbits are a national disgrace \u2013 they also taste great!\u201d<\/span>
\nThis popular community event mashed a rabbit control talk with a rabbit cooking contest, plus \u2018pin the tail on the rabbit\u2019 for kids, and more. And the guests got to eat the yummy bunny\u00a0dishes! Brilliant. A perfect exampling of mixing a serious subject with an irresistible social event.
\n110 folks turned up in March \u201cwith a mad scramble at the end for tables\u201d. According to Joel Geoghegan, one of the organisers, it\u2019s \u201c90% fun and eating and 10% reality” with music, poetry and a talk on….rabbit control techniques.<\/p>\n


\n4) Whimsical Wayfinding by the sustainable\u00a0transport team,\u00a0City of Port Phillip (Vic) \u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"ATT22945For a perfect implementation of the\u00a0Brains Trust approach.<\/span><\/p>\n

The project, led by Jessica Cerejo, aimed to\u00a0help people discover Emerald Hill by foot (as opposed to driving).<\/p>\n

\"ATT29469The process: two community ‘brains trust’ workshops. The first briefed, informed and inspired the brains trust, then facilitated them to create a theory of change to create the desired future. The second session developed a fast prototype of Whimsical Wayfinding: informal signs to point people find\u00a0the hidden gems of Emerald Hill.
\n\"ATT80434\"ATT93602
\nThe signs were then fast prototyped at the Emerald Hill festival. People viewed\u00a0the signs, added more and voted on them.
\nAfter installation, a survey showed more than 40% of people didn’t know about Pocket Park or\u00a0the Community Garden\/Foundry Park\u00a0until\u00a0they saw the signs.
\n <\/p>\n

PLUS\u00a0<\/strong>an honourable mention to the\u00a0City of Port Phillip\u2019s sustainable transport team\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>Ride2School Day 2016<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n

We\u00a0don\u2019t need to reward\u00a0them. Their schools won 5 out of 6 school awards in the national program, with the city itself won the highest ranking Ride2School Day Council award with a $10,000 prize.\u00a0http:\/\/www.enviroehub.com.au\/ride2school<\/a>
\nWell done all!
