Designing Citizenship - InciteXchange - Nemani - Feb 16
This document discusses an app called Adopt-a-Whatever that has expanded to serve 7 cities and address various community needs. It highlights the challenges of getting communities engaged in innovation efforts and rebuilding trust between citizens and government. The Code for America fellowship program is described as a model for community engagement, with examples of civic projects like Septa.Mobi and DiscoverBPS.org that were created through the fellowship to design better civic experiences.

Editor's Notes
- #12 Steep innovation curve that has changed our lives as social beings and consumers over the last ten yearsNot just more convenient, also more connected and capable of acting as networksBut our experiences as citizens really hasn’t changed or at least citizens of our governmentMany particularly young people think of themselves as citizens of the Internet more than of their own government The gap between this innovation curve in the public sector and the private sector is DANGEROUS…it destroys trust between the people and the institution that is supposed to serve us all

- #20 Bring fellows together with cities
