Launched in April, the Open Governance Research Exchange (OGRX) seeks to improve the evidence base on how to change the way we solve problems and make decisions by curating and making accessible a diversity of findings on innovations in governance. We are delighted to share some recent updates:

CONTENT: The site has since expanded substantially with dozens of new publications added and shared across topic areas like behavioral science and nudges, citizen engagement and crowdsourcing, and open data.

Those interested in sharing their own research can do so using this submission form.

PARTNERS: We are also pleased to announce new partnerships with five organizations working at the forefront of governance innovation: Centre for Public Impact, Open Evidence, Digital Commons Lab, Open Data for Development and the Swedish Law and Informatics Research Institute. They join existing organizations collaborating on building OGRX into a common resource including the Centre for Innovation at Leiden University, Arizona State University’s Center for Policy Informatics, MacArthur Foundation Research Network on Opening Governance and Research Consortium on the Impact of Open Government.

Benefits of partnership on OGRX include dedicated organization research pages, as well as a voice in the continued development of the platform to the end of collaboratively making this resource for the field as useful as possible.

If you are interested in joining this effort to build a research and evidence base of means of public problem-solving, please reach out to OGRX editor-in-chief Andrew Young ([email protected]) to explore partnership opportunities.
