GovLab practices in Opasnet (Opaslab)

GovLab practices in Opasnet (Opaslab) is a research and development project that aims to combine lessons learned from three important lines of work. They have each worked in different areas, but their synergism is what makes this project unique:

  • Opasnet is a web workspace for making science-based impact assessments and models to support societal decision making. The web workspace is designed to implement open policy practice, a systematic method to produce relevant information for decision support.
  • The GovLab is an organisation within the New York University developing new practices for open governance. Their key method is to test ideas in practice to see what works.
  • Innovillage is a project within the National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) in Finland. It aims at collecting, developing, and sharing good practices within the health sector.

The objectives of this project are to:

  1. bring the open policy practice method into a new setting in the GovLab and test for its applicability,
  2. develop open policy practice further based on lessons learned in the GovLab,
  3. describe the new practices in Innovillage as a platform to share the practices further,
  4. implement the new practices with CSC - IT center for science in practical cases in Finnish governance.
