About the session
Y Lab have been undertaking research to explore the most effective methods to involve people in decision making, particularly focusing on deliberative democracy. We’d like to share our findings and explore how they could affect public service delivery across the UK. This interactive workshop will explore how our research can change practice in public sector delivery. We want to hear what you think the opportunities are for deliberative methods to shape power, policy and participation in the future.
