Developed within the EU-funded project SISCODE, the MOOC ‘Co-creation for policymakers: an introductory course’ is now available on the EU Academy.
“Co-creation” and “co-design” are buzzwords that are frequently used in product and service innovation. But what about in public sector policy making? Getting the right input from all relevant stakeholders, including those most affected by any policy development, is critical to getting policy choices right. So how best to establish meaningful engagement with all stakeholders that is fulfilling and useful to all involved?
The MOOC ‘Co-creation for policy makers: an introductory course’ introduces participants to the use of co-creation and design methodologies in policy making, and is especially tailored for professionals working in this field.
The course is delivered through five modules developed over five weeks, and guides participants through the main building blocks of co-creation and design. In each module, experts in the field walk participants through the specific aspects of the co-creation process cycle.
Among topics explored are the limitations of current policy-making practice, the strong need for innovation to improve efficiency, the benefits of using user-centred methods and service design, the vital importance of problem framing, the role of different stakeholders, power dynamics, prototyping and new forms of action. The idea is for professional policy makers to come away with new tools and new inspirations to turn their policy objectives into sustainable solutions whose benefits and impacts can be evaluated and assessed effectively.
The course is subtitled in six languages: English, French, German, Italian, Polish and Spanish.
