An Exercise in Environmental Collaborative Planning
by Mike George
University of Nebraska, Omaha
Summary
For this simulation students break into groups and work collaboratively to develop a site restoration development plan for the property. Each student is assigned a role to play as a specific stakeholder with specific interests they are to “protect” through the process. It provides students with the experience of working in a contentious, collaborative environment—similar to “real world” collaborative efforts—to develop a site development plan. Students must reach agreement on and apply technical standards while reaching a policy consensus. After completing the simulation, students will appreciate the difficulty of getting to a decision in a collaborative environment and discover what techniques work to achieve a sustainable decision.
