In support of the constitutional guiding principle of transparency, it is important for the constitution-making body (CMB) to proactively and systematically impart and exchange information and news about the constitution-making process with stakeholders, the public and the media. To this end, a CMB secretariat will usually have a Communication Department, and that department will first need to develop a communication strategy to guide all communications by and from the CMB. A communication strategy is a tool utilized by the CMB and secretariat describing how these bodies will utilize the media and other means to impart and exchange information and news about the constitution making process with the general public.
