For more than three years, Gov 2.0 Radio has been where thought leaders and decision-makers, practitioners and civic innovators have come to tune in to important trends.
Voices for proactive innovation and change We're emerging as not just a podcast but a place where people can learn to find their voice on "connected government" in all its forms... e-gov, gov 2.0, open gov and more... as well as on shaping positive change through innovation in the public sphere. We aspire to challenge thinking that's become too stale and - while we aren't a solutions provider - to provide signposts to where sustainable solutions may lie. Our vision is that by being an effective, useful and respected channel, we can play a small role in accelerating positive change where it's most needed.

But the technology is only an enabler and, for us, Gov 2.0 and open gov are important cultural shifts in the way we all - that’s all of us - do government. The vision of sound We aim to broaden the podcast distribution as widely and equitably as possible. Video is funky, but we like audio because it's easier, cheaper and faster to capture and showcase candid, emerging practice. Audio is also low bandwidth and has a lower barrier to entry for many people. This is key to making more Gov 2.0 Radio content more accessible - not only in those agencies with limited net access but, importantly, to practitioners in emerging economies as well. We're about amplifying the voices of connected government & public innovation. In 2012 and onwards, our goal for the rebooted If you’d like to be part of our continuing conversation, please log on and join in. • For more on the new Gov 2.0 Radio crew • For a sneak preview of good things coming in 2012 visit our G2R Third Birthday 2-part episodes. |
