DESIGN EDUCATION

A LOGO THAT SAYS DESIGN EDUCATION, PUBLIC POLICY DESIGN

Teach experts and generalists how to use design

The Policy Design Community provides a network for people who make public policy and services in innovative design-centred ways. It is open to anyone who works for a government organisation in the UK.

Design Education is a working group of the policy design community. This group works to educate people in government about how to use design to make public policy and services.

The group aims to...

  • set out the policy design roles and skills for generalists and experts
  • pilot the policy-to-delivery course for policymakers
  • prototype a design crit buddy scheme for policy design teams
  • offer short off-the-shelf, interactive taster sessions for policymakers
  • train practitioners in policy design based on roles and essentials skills

You can join the Design Education group by emailing policy.design@policyprofession.gov.uk from your government email address.
