A thread to start highlighting all of the amazing events that different groups around the world are putting on for #GovAfterShock on 17 November! (And there& #39;s still time for others to put on their own events. If you want to, then check out our event guide https://gov-after-shock.oecd-opsi.org/host-an-event/ )">https://gov-after-shock.oecd-opsi.org/host-an-e...
As part of the @OECDgov @OPSIgov #GovAfterShock initiative, supported by @EU_Commission, we have invited people to hold events on 17 Nov to reflect on the current crisis & what it has revealed about what we need to leave behind, what we want to keep & what we should leave behind.
I& #39;m biased, so will start with the Australian events. First we have @contentgroup who, along with many others now, is putting on a GovComms Festival to look at how the government communication landscape is changing. You can find out more on the event site https://gov-after-shock.oecd-opsi.org/event/govcomms-festival/">https://gov-after-shock.oecd-opsi.org/event/gov...
They have also kindly put together a video pitch with @davidpembroke giving an overview of what the GovComms Festival is all about and how it fits with #GovAfterShock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8xHK5s3DRw">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
