[HN] People Powering Policy

该项目旨在确定设计研究是否、在何处以及如何通过更多的公民参与来促进政策制定。它将制作一个政策工具包设计，其中包含指标、方法和工具，以支持学者和决策者在决策过程的适当阶段更有效地与公民接触。设计是一种解决问题的方法，它脱离了对用户需求的分析，让用户共同开发和测试解决方案。设计越来越多地被称为“政策实验室”的政府团队采用，试图通过更多的公民参与来更新公共政策制定的合法性。尽管如此，迄今为止，“在政策制定的背景下，对设计的学术研究很少”（Kimbell, 2015）。英国的经典决策模型是ROAMEF（基本原理，目标，评估，监测实施，评估和反馈）。英国财政部经济处处长约瑟夫•洛威表示：“有必要加强公民在决策过程中的参与。挑战在于将设计研究与ROAMEF结合起来。”该项目旨在确定设计研究是否、在何处以及如何加强公民参与ROAMEF政策模型的各个阶段，并直接解决AHRC的优先事项，即“加强设计研究在政策中的作用”。该奖学金建立在我在AHRC项目“为创新政策绘制设计”和“protoppolicy”以及欧洲项目“SEE -分享欧洲设计创新政策经验”中获得的经验基础上，所有这些项目都使用设计方法来吸引决策者和公民。它还建立在我作为AHRC公共政策咨询小组的新兴研究员成员和参加AHRC/政府研究所课程“与政府接触”的经验之上。我在设计和政策方面与政府和公民合作方面有着良好的记录。多年来，我一直与内阁办公室政策实验室、威尔士政府创新团队、北爱尔兰创新实验室和苏格兰政府创新团队（见支持信）合作。我将与这些政策实验室进行为期一个月的“驻留”，以测试这些工具、方法和指标。让公民、政策实验室、政策制定者、设计师和学者从一开始就参与制定“政策工具包设计”，将有助于确保工具、方法和指标符合目的并得到采纳。

This project aims to identify if, where and how design research might enhance policy-making through greater citizen involvement. It will produce a Design for Policy Toolkit containing metrics, methods and tools to support academics and policy-makers to engage more effectively with citizens at appropriate stages of the policy-making process.Design is an approach to problem-solving that departs from an analysis of user needs and involves users in jointly developing and testing solutions. Design is increasingly being adopted by government teams called 'Policy Labs' in an attempt to renew the legitimacy of public policy-making through greater citizen involvement'. Despite this, to date, 'there has been little academic research into design in the context of policy-making' (Kimbell, 2015). The classic policy-making model in the UK is ROAMEF (Rationale, Objectives, Appraisal, Monitoring Implementation, Evaluation and Feedback) . For Joseph Lowe, Head of Economics Branch in the Treasury, "There is a need to enhance citizen engagement in policy-making. The challenge is to align design research with ROAMEF." This project seeks to identify if, where and how design research might enhance citizen involvement in the various stages of the ROAMEF policy model and directly addresses the AHRC priority to 'enhance the role of design research in policy'. This fellowship builds on my experiences gained in the AHRC projects 'Mapping Design for Innovation Policy' and 'ProtoPolicy' as well as the European project 'SEE - Sharing European Experience on Design Innovation Policy', all of which used design methods to engage policy-makers and citizens. It also builds on my experience as the Emerging Researcher member of the AHRC Public Policy Advisory Group and attending the AHRC/Institute for Government course 'Engaging with Government'.I have a strong track record in working with government and citizens in the context of design and policy. Over a number of years I have collaborated with the Cabinet Office Policy Lab, Welsh Government Innovation Team, Northern Ireland Innovation Lab and Scottish Government Ingage Team (see letters of support). I will participate in one-month immerse 'residencies' with these policy labs to test the tools, methods and metrics. Engaging citizens, policy labs, policy-makers, designers and academics in developing the Design for Policy Toolkit from the outset will help to ensure that the tools, methods and metrics are fit for purpose and adopted.
