Policy Kitchen celebrates its two-year anniversary!

 

TWO YEARS! – and what a ride this has been: In the past two years we have conducted over 15 challenges and organized 57 workshops in 20 cities from Berlin to Bangalore (and more recently, virtually). In this time, the Policy Kitchen community has grown to over 1300 diverse thinkers who have generated more than 440 solutions to today’s most pressing issues. Based on these ideas, we already launched five publications on topics like AI governance, biodiversity, or European mobility under COVID-19 and presented them in high-impact fora. Two publications on Feminist Foreign Policy and Health Data Governance will be launched next month. 

 

A celebration does not come without gifts – and we have plenty of them. 

We’re happy to share with you our anniversary publication detailing the Policy Kitchen story, our learnings from various participatory processes, interviews and more. 

We are also proud to release the Policy Kitchen App, available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store! This allows you to create, share and discuss your ideas wherever you are. We have also improved the Policy Kitchen website with a new design, real-time collaborative text and more.

Finally, we have created a video explaining the Policy Kitchen approach and officially launched Policy Kitchen as a service.

 

Things are changing fast, but we’re keeping up the pace. If you feel like you lost track of what’s been going on, we’re happy to invite you to the first ever Policy Kitchen Open Night on the 14th of December. The Open Night is a unique opportunity to connect with likeminded people, ask questions, and discuss participatory policy making.

Thank you for being part of this exciting journey. We are looking forward to more inspiring challenges, innovative ideas and fruitful conversations.
