Overview
The Summer School’s focus is on public administrations are changing how they approach the ongoing digital transformation of their public service delivery and at the same time dealing with multiple crises situations. We will first provide a theoretical and practical overview of the core approaches, then dive deeper into the analysis and application of agile work practices that are necessary for the digital transformation. The students will then explore these topics with government practitioners and present their findings. In a flipped classroom format, students will build learning teams and at the same time learn how to and apply agile work practices simultaneously. We are combining an online phase with an onsite visit at the University of Tartu in Estonia and provide an immersion experience in arguably one of the most advanced digital societies in the world.
Programme Structure
Independent reading in July: Students will have material to individually work through before the in-person part of the school. The students will be divided into groups and under the guidance of their supervisor they will start working on their group assignment. There will be occasional online meetings and short lectures throughout July. Exact programme will be available from February 16th.
In person on 4–11 August, 2023, in Tartu, Estonia with lectures, meetings and fieldtrip to digital governance organisations and institutions of Estonia to learn first-hand from practitioners
