Collaborating with Government (or anybody, really)

"government is essentially what we do together that we can’t do alone." - Jennifer Pahlka

Often, to effect change in your local community, you have to work with a government. As an organization focused on facilitating community change with collaborative creation, Open Twin Cities has had its far share of government partnerships and interactions in its short history. In one year alone, Open Twin Cities collaborated with Minnesota's Secretary of State, MN.IT Services, and Hennepin County on three events, and worked with the City of Minneapolis to enact an open data policy. Along the way we've learned a thing or two about working with government, creating partnerships, and collaborating.

Ever wondered what it's like to work with a government? Or just curious to hear some lessons on collaboration? Then this session is for you.
