Changing the World, One Gov 2.0-Enabled Voice at a Time: Join a preview of Gov 2.0 Camp New England with Sarah Bourne of MassGov and Yasmin Fodil from HKS, followed by a conversation with Wayne Moses Burke of the Open Forum Foundation.
We talk with Wayne about tools like GovLuv – for connecting citizens to their elected reps through social media, the upcoming citizen engagement developers workshop and Participation Camp he’s working on, and his vision for advancing public participation in government by connecting government managers and staff, public engagement experts, online tool developers, and citizens.
“I think our focus as a community needs to change from ‘technology in government’ to ‘citizen-centered government,’” Wayne says. “What we’re really in the middle of is a broad cultural shift that I believe will result in an engaged citizenry. The complication on the government side is being ready for that.”
