From Service Design Network Conference, June 2016
How does design contribute to growth and prosperity? Drawing on experience of over fifteen years of measuring the impact of design for government, this talk looks at the pitfalls and potential for successfully demonstrating design’s value to the wider world. From design in healthcare to designing employment support services, project by project it explores practical ways that design has needed to deploy increasingly rigorous ways to measure its impact. Using a range of recent examples where the Lab has successfully blended design tools with data science to build robust evidence for decision-makers. It contains the latest insights on productivity and efficiency.
It also shows how the Policy Lab has been using speculative design and critical design techniques to develop prototypes for new policies. Reflecting on how design thinking can be used as a process to aid decision-making combining lean analytics, user insights and real time prototypes.
Finally it asks how design can be used as a powerful tool for moving from predictive analytics towards prescriptive analytics.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

2. Key Messages
Department of Housing and Public Works 2
During the COVID-19 response, the Partners in Technology forum will be used as the key
mechanism for Queensland Government to engage with Queensland’s digital and ICT industry and
to share its key ICT, Digital and Data priorities.
The Queensland Chief Customer and Digital Officer will host fortnightly briefings which will include a
key address and a facilitated Q&A session with participants.
100 people participated in the sixth interactive Partners in Technology webinar which had a focus on
the Future of Digital and ICT in the Queensland Government and it’s potential impact on
procurement.
3. Key Messages continued
Department of Housing and Public Works 3
The QLD Government has received 46 offers of assistance from it’s ICT industry partners to support
the state’s COVID19 response
The short form contract is still available for use by agencies and partners with seven applying it over
the last 2-3 months. Adoption of digital technologies has massively accelerated as a result of
COVID19.
How will we as an industry use sensors, data, and more to help us deliver better services for citizens
and businesses?
Since COVID19 how will government and wider sector adopt and adapt to the changed world through
digital and ICT to support Queensland’s economic and social priorities?
4. Key Messages continued
Department of Housing and Public Works 4
Prof. Marek Kowalkiewicz, Founding Director, from the Centre for the Digital Economy provides
insights into the new normal, digital change and the new economy.
• Government 5.0 - Personalisation, a focus on a citizen model with a KPI of desirability
• COVID19 has been a significant driver for digital transformation
• Digital Resilience – Sustaining, long-term, tenacity, focus
• Digital Agility – Transforming, short-term, velocity, exploration
21. Key Questions and Answers (starts at 30 minutes)
Department of Housing and Public Works 21
Q1: Have you heard of organisations testing, roleplaying, scenario playing the possible issues that
might confront their businesses like cyber attacks?
A1: Marek: Yes many organisations are using this, it is a subset of futures thinking but is not yet well
developed as a skill as it could be
Chris: Work recently on pandemic research used scenario planning prior to the recent event which
allowed them to respond significantly better than those that hadn’t. This for example applies to Cyber
security and we have used this across government to help prepare for incidents
Q2: How important is data management when moving to everything digital?
A2: Chris: It’s been said “data is the new oil”, we have a great Open Data policy, and there is still lots of
opportunity for improving it and for the sector to take advantage of it. Data is an opportunity for the new
economy, with new value from the data alone.
Marek: If data is the new oil, then we need good oil for good performance. Many organisations don’t
recognise the value of some of their data for a while, whilst others connect more data than they need.
Following the briefing, a facilitated Questions and Answers (Q&A) session was held
with the participants. A summary of the key Q&A’s is provided below
22. Continued
Department of Housing and Public Works 22
Q3: With the expected downturn on ICT expenditure, where do you feel that government should focus on
over the next 3 years?
A3: Marek: As many working from home have been using their personal systems, they might find it challenging
to get back to the office so can we recreate the home office experience in the public sector.
Chris: I think that is a valid point, COVID19 did expose some weakness of digital on the inside like
movement of paper and physical signatures. Resilience and agility is also important, agility in particular for
short and sharp initiatives which derive value to the customer.
Q4: How are more resilient businesses using data to improve and make decisions?
A4: Chris: Government in general has come a long way with this and I think we will move beyond just reporting
but also delving further into data interpretation
Marek: Public sector has an opportunity as digital maturity changes and each part of government is at
various stages of their journey. There is an opportunity to test this.
Chris: My experience with this was through NSW Minister Dominello who pays very close attention to
dashboards, watch this space for Queensland.
23. Continued
Department of Housing and Public Works 23
Q5: Have you seen any new practices that we should keep or avoid?
A5: Chris: I think that social isolation is something that we need to work on. Returning to the workplace will be
a positive for many for the social aspects. A positive example is the rapid evolution of software, for example
MS teams and raising hands is a significant contrast to initial teleconferences.
Marek: Agreed healthy workplaces are important and there are challenging aspects in the change from
working from work to working from home. I would like to see joining a meeting remotely stay for all
meetings.
Chris: I’ve really enjoyed the unsolicited proposals from industry in how they can help us solve problems
differently, it has lead to many productive conversations.
Q6: Any closing comments or thoughts?
Marek: Agreed healthy workplaces are important and there are challenging aspects in the change from
working from work to working from home. I would like to see joining a meeting remotely stay for all
meetings.
24. Continued
Department of Housing and Public Works 24
Q6: Any closing comments or thoughts?
Marek: We’re living in very exciting times, but also very challenging. Together we find ways
to solve challenging problems, so long as we think about ensuring our organisations are
resilient and agile, and as long as we focus on Government 5.0 and the customer the future
will be pretty bright.
Chris: The recovery process is full of opportunities and my hope is that we can apply those
opportunities in a way that they can be delivered fastest to the people that need them.
Solutions need to be developed in time to help those in the time they need them. The
phrases that I’ve been trying to use is to “not let perfect get in the way of good” which I think
is a good approach to market, and we’ve seen how accepting people are of iteration of
solutions. Good examples of this were the border crossing process and the covid19 website.

Editor's Notes
So, when you wake up, you decide it’s not about whole-of-government service delivery, but a whole-of-life service delivery.
You break out of your government, and align with other governments and other service providers.
For the first time, citizen is truly in your focus. Will there be another revelation coming?
We don’t know yet – Government 5.0 is the beacon so far.
And we spent a lot of time thinking. We started in 2015. Four years ago.
Worked with all three levels of government in Australia. 23 innovation sprints – reimagining the future of government services. More than 500 government executives working with us and learning with us.
What we know is that every public organisation can be on different levels at the same time.
There will be some services that are 1.0, and some other ones that are 4.0 and sometimes even 5.0. And that’s ok. You need to manage this complexity, though. With this framework you finally have a map, and can understand what to focus on at different stages.
