The Edge Of Government

The Edge Of Government is an immersive experience, with visitors invited on a journey through a landscape of rapidly emerging and continuously evolving solutions to solve the most pressing public challenges of our time. In a period where there seems to be questions around the ability of governments to keep up with the pace of change, the Edge of Government highlights cases where governments have embraced new trends and technologies showing that they are indeed able to shape the world, anticipate demand and create innovative solutions for the benefits of their citizens”. The Edge of Government builds on a global call for innovations done jointly by MBRCGI with the OECD that received over 500 submissions. The call for innovations was complemented by a global horizon scanning exercise and in-country visits conducted jointly by the two organizations. Organized and curated by the Mohammed bin Rashid Centre for Government Innovation, the Edge of Government encourages leaders and visitors to take a closer look at innovations below the radar-screen and to experiment with new approaches raising the question of how governments can effectively explore and keep abreast of an increasingly wide array of tools and options available to them.
