ItemInnovation labs and co-production in public problem solvingMcGann, M ; Wells, T ; Blomkamp, E (ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2019-12-07)Governments are increasingly establishing innovation labs to enhance public problem solving. Despite the speed at which these new units are being established, they have only recently begun to receive attention from public management scholars. This study assesses the extent to which labs are enhancing strategic policy capacity through pursuing more collaborative and citizen-centred approaches to policy design. Drawing on original case study research of five labs in Australia and New Zealand, it examines the structure of lab’s relationships to government partners, and the extent and nature of their activities in promoting citizen-participation in public problem solving.

ItemPembangunan Inklusif Gender dan Desentralisasi Pemerintahan: Memperkuat Suara dan Pengaruh Perempuan melalui Aksi Kolektif di Daerah Perdesaan IndonesiaDiprose, R ; Savirani, A ; Wells, T (University of Melbourne with Universitas Gadjah Mada and MAMPU, 2020)This peer-reviewed research and policy paper (available in English and Bahasa Indonesia) draws on analysis of how women influence decision making in Indonesia's multi-level governance structure under the new Village Law in Indonesia. The analysis identifies the ways that women, through different causal processes, influence development priorities, spending, projects, policies and policy actors, as well as social norms in communities. The analysis draws from a large, qualitative comparative study conducted in different places throughout Indonesia, providing an analytical framework for understanding variation in social and politico-economic contexts in terms of the constraints and opportunities for gender inclusion and women's empowerment. The research also explains variations in the processes by which women exercise voice and influence in these differing contexts, providing considerations for policy makers and others concerned with gender inclusion, women's empowerment and everyday wellbeing.
