Welcome to the September to December i2S News! This news covers 4 months of new additions to the resources on the i2S website (http://i2s.anu.edu.au/resources/), along with new blog posts on the Integration and Implementation Insights (i2Insights) blog (https://i2insights.org/). Although we aim to publish i2S News bimonthly, September and October got away from us.

In good news from the Integration and Implementation Insights blog:

• in the first 8 months of 2021 the blog surpassed the total number of views and viewers achieved in 2020
• the median number of views of blog posts over their lifetime is now more than 700 (https://i2insights.org/blog-statistics)
• we now have a primer series on stakeholder engagement, with 10 blog posts being published between October and December 2021. The aims are to provide an introduction to stakeholder engagement, to foster the building of an agreed body of knowledge and to minimise the occurrence of poorly conducted stakeholder engagement. As these blog posts are published, they are available at: https://i2insights.org/tag/primer-stakeholder-engagement.

It seems too early to send an end of year message, but as this will be our last News for 2021, we hope you sail through to the end of the year effortlessly and that we can all look forward to a healthy, safe and sustainable 2022.
