Description
Introduction The aim of this paper is to explore the risk communication strategies currently being employed in a number of Victorian Government schools to enable parents to make an 'informed' decision regarding their child's participation in a school outdoor education program. This paper also investigates the beliefs and assumptions regarding risk communication held by the outdoor education co-ordinators in those schools. Within the specific context of current theoretical thinking in risk communication, the potential implications of these chosen strategies will be discussed.
