If you are a civic software developer dealing with fragmented government communication—this project developed an interactive e-learning course and toolkit that helps public authorities coordinate across different levels of governance.
Governance Toolkit for Managing Large-Scale Crises and Regulatory Compliance
Imagine trying to coordinate a fire drill across 31 different buildings, each with its own set of rules and bosses. This work looks at how different levels of government—from local mayors to international health agencies—clashed or cooperated during the pandemic. It creates a guidebook to help leaders make fast decisions without breaking the law or losing public trust.
What needed solving
Governments often struggle to coordinate crisis responses across local, national, and international levels, leading to legal conflicts and a loss of public trust.
What was built
A comprehensive dataset of crisis measures from 31 countries and a Toolkit on Legitimate Crisis Governance including an e-learning course for civil servants.
