On Monday, the preconference day, we welcomed the members of theĀ International Design in Government Community. This community is a group of design-minded people from governments all over the world. Their purpose is to learn from each other, share best practices and design patterns, and discuss shared challenges so that they can try and work on them together. On this page: links to further information, including presentations, videos and blogs if available.
