A pilot centre for excellence in Public Sector Design - Australia

One of the ideas included in the Australian Public Service (APS) Innovation Action Plan released in 2011 was the establishment of an APS Design Centre that could assist in developing and testing new approaches to complex policy challenges and to enhance government program delivery. This in turn was based on a recommendation within Empowering Change that the APS establish a MindLab style collaborative experimentation program.

The 'Centre of Excellence in Public Sector Design' will be hosted by ANU and is planned to commence work in the first half of 2012. It looks like their looking to recruit a CEO for this Centre.
