    Ajoy Datta
    This working paper draws practical lessons from processes in which members of the public have been involved in public engagement work. We define public engagement as those initiatives where members of the public have been recruited or invited to collaborate or engage in dialogue with scientists and other professional stakeholders through participatory or deliberative means. The study assesses the benefits of engagement with science for the public, for scientists, for institutions and for other actors, including industry. It then identifies and discusses 16 issues and concludes with some guiding principles to help public engagement practitioners (including scientists) plan ahead.
