Team management
===============

   Teams help sort both people and projects for searchability, and also help assign roles and permissions in the Civio Engage configuration settings.

Teams can have unique pages created for your Civio Engage website, so public participants can learn more about the team and understand who is driving the consultations. You can also see members of the team, and delete the team.

Team report
-----------

To access a team report, click one of one of the Teams in the Teams landing page. The team report is dynamic and updates in real time as data comes in. The team report can be configured and customised in the same way as other report dashboards in Civio Engage. For more information about how to manage and configure reports, see [Reporting](/articles/9493712891791-Reporting-dashboards).

Department teams, campaign teams and projects
---------------------------------------------

When creating a project, you need to assign this project to a team (*department or team*), as every project within Civio Engage is owned by a team.

![image - 2024-03-11T130940.528.png](/storage/articles/9493391142927.png)

A *department team* can own multiple projects. And a project can also be part of one or more *campaign teams*. A campaign team groups projects across different teams. For example project A can be part of department team A, project B is part of department team B. But both project A and B can also be part of campaign team C.

Assigning a project to a campaign team is only optional, while assigning a project team owner is a requirement for creating a project.
