stories about design for policy [aka society]

To me, public policy is fundamentally an idea about the society we want to live in. Crafting such idea is, contrary to the established mindset, NOT a matter of public sector viewpoints only, on the contrary: the former take into consideration corporate, new tech, as much as ‘conventional’ political dynamics and viewpoints.

Active in and for better surfacing of heterogeneous perceptions, desires or needs, I base gracefullypolitics on suggestions and experiences from leading or building from scratch human-centric and value-driven innovation approaches across the public and private sector - and beyond.

Over the past ten years, I have thought- and action-led expertise and insights. I am sharing my early ideas with those equally interested in debunking tech, public and private sector, innovation and design (thinking) myths. I want the inspire a more open and holistic discussion about what ‘progress’ means to the world and, in particular, to those who live (in) it [aka not just ‘with’ or ‘under’ it].
