Public Sector Nomads, Barnsley Council and local government colleagues in Yorkshire & Humber are involved with the organisation of a LocalGovCamp ‘unconference’ on 12 June.
LocalGovCamp’s are funky ‘grass roots’ events and involve open debate and innovative sector led thinking. This free event is seeking to explore the future of local government enabled by a digital world. There will be much discussion about new ways of working and transformation, the role of technology and social media and about co-design and citizen participation.
LocalGovCamp Yorkshire & Humber will also feature short parallel work streams for elected members on the use of social media, sessions being led by colleagues from Kirklees with input from Cllr Tim Cheetham (Barnsley), Cllr Simon Cooke (Bradford) and Ingrid Koehler (IDeA & Connected Councillor Programme).
Being held in York on Saturday 12 June at the National Railway Museum, you can find more detail and register at www.localgovcamp-yh.co.uk
The event is FREE for all to attend and as a bonus we’ll be having a World Cup themed after party to watch England v. USA
