WSC, WSUD, SUWM, IWM, TWCM……We need your help to better understand how we use water terminology

Water industry professionals are invited to take part in a new 10-minute survey investigating the use of technical terminology in communicating with the public.

The survey, part of research in Engaging communities with Water Sensitive Cities (Project A2.3), is a collaboration between the CRC for Water Sensitive Cities (CRCWSC) and the University of Queensland.

Questions in the survey will explore the use of technical water terminology by water industry professionals as well as perceptions of community members’ understanding and use of the same terminology.

This study is being conducted by Mr Mohamed Effin Jamalludin as part of the requirements for the Master of Organisational Psychology degree at the University of Queensland under the supervision of Associate Professor Kelly Fielding.

The goal is to inform ongoing work by research team members to improve communication between the water industry and community partners.

The survey closes 28 August 2015. Participants who complete the survey will enter the draw to win an iPad Air 2.
