Abstract

In a complex world generating copious amounts of knowledge, new perspectives are needed to understand, deliberate, and organize collectively to build public goods. This workshop provides an interactive introduction to the theory, methods, and actionable applications of policy informatics. Policy informatics is the study of how advances in computation, information, and communication technologies are leveraged to understand and address complex policy and administrative problems and realize innovations in governance processes and institutions. Participants will engage with content and other participants. Four themes are covered: 1) theories useful to understanding policy informatics, 2) information, tools, and changing norms in the public sector, 3) interactive simulations and models, 4) participatory platforms – design, governance, and outcomes. There will be a presentation interaction format using cutting edge examples and activities, and participants will learn techniques and methods for solving problems in the context of the values and objectives of government.
