'Well-designed Democracy': The Practical Democracy Project

Delib

<H2>Well-designed Democracy</H2>
A breakfast event looking at how product and behavioural design principles could be used to improve the policy-making process, with the idea of bringing together a mix of product designers, behavioural scientists along with policy-makers/civil servants to investigate the idea of how we can create a ‘well-designed democracy’.
We're delighted to say we've got some excellent speakers confirmed:
<UL>
<LI>Dr Michael Hallsworth, Director at the Behavioural Insights Team – on using behavioural economics to design better policies</LI>
<LI>
Glyn Britton, Chief Strategy Officer at Albion – on designing 'democratic brands’; some lessons from designing GiffGaff, a pioneering democratic brand
</LI>
<LI>
Temi Ogunye, Citizens Advice Bureau – presenting research on how people practically engage with democracy from a day-to-day perspective
</LI>
<LI>
Sarah Allan, Involve – on practical steps to better policy design and participation
</LI>
</UL>
Breakfast will be provided and, of course, there'll be plenty of tea and coffee available.
This event is part of the <A HREF="http://blog.delib.net/practical-democracy-project/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Practical Democracy Project</A>, a series of events organised by <A HREF="http://www.Delib.net" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Delib</A> dedicated to looking at how technology can best be used to make every-day improvements to the democratic process – with a particular focus on policy-making at local and central government levels.
The overall aim of the Practical Democracy Project is to design the ‘ultimate democracy user-journey’.  On one side, we’ll be mapping out in practical terms how to create the best democratic user-journey for citizens, using technologies that dominate people’s everyday lives; on the other side, we’ll be mapping out the optimal user-journey for government officials/policy makers/elected officials.  The key point being that democratic processes are a two-sided affair, which need to be optimised for both citizens and government if they’re to work.
