Co-creation

The final set of interviews in our Listening to Inclusive Innovators series addresses civic engagement.  These interviews are powerful on their own, and also serve as great counter-points to the previous set of posts on co-creation.

This interview with Molly Day, Chief Strategy Officer, LIFT, is the sixteenth in the Center for Urban Innovation's Listening to Inclusive Innovators series.

This interview with Eric Gordon, Professor, Department of Visual and Media Arts, Emerson College; Founding Executive Director, Engagement Lab, is the fifteenth in the Center for Urban Innovation's Listening to Inclusive Innovators series.

This interview with Ben Berkwoitz, Chief Executive Officer, SeeClickFix, is the fifteenth in the Center for Urban Innovation's Listening to Inclusive Innovators series.

This interview with Caroline Hill, Founder, DC Equity Lab; Co-founder, Equity Design Collaborative, is the fourteenth in the Center for Urban Innovation's Listening to Inclusive Innovators series.

This interview with Dennis Whittle, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Feedback Labs, is the thirteenth in the Center for Urban Innovation's Listening to Inclusive Innovators series.

Co-creation, the idea that people experiencing a problem are experts about that problem and should be engaged in creating the solution to that problem, is a brilliant idea. It is also, in my experience, a rare practice in policymaking, service delivery, or implementation. The interviews in this next round of our Listening to Inclusive Innovators series highlight why co-creation is both so important and so uncommon.
