Crowd-Sourced Wikis for Government

We're glad to share the link to the recording for this recent webinar program, courtesy of CPAP Phd Student Jacob Parcell:

Social collaboration tools can welcome interested people to contribute ideas that help your agency develop policy. Hear how Ontario, Canada, used a social innovation wiki to gather public input for a policy paper on Social Innovation that helped them implement Ontario’s social innovation strategy.

In this webinar, Allyson Hewitt from SiG@MaRS, and Anne Bermonte from Ontario’s Ministry of Economic Development and Innovation, will share lessons learned, and discuss the opportunities and ongoing challenges of using social media to develop policy. Syracuse University's Ines Mergel will discuss her research of federal, state and local agencies' use of wikis, and how she created a checklist for creating and maintaining a wiki.
