Is the term ‘community engineer’ resonant across local geographies that have (post)industrial landscapes? Is it a term with universal application? Or can we think of different terms to match regional differences and diversities

I’m thinking of other cities/locations where there is strong community work, but with different historical landscapes, such as Plymouth (where I live), where there’s a strong naval & sea-faring industry. How could the term be adapted across regions and geographies?
