47 | 2023 | 21 | 15:45 | 5 | 7 | 14 | Buying hardware for public sector. Seems properly broken. How can we fix it? // Is it salvageable? Legacy technology tends to trigger a negative reaction but it can cost millions to replace, so how can we salvage technology so that old systems can continue to add value? | James // Kayleigh | GovCamp 2023 notes : Session 5, room 7 |
48 | 2023 | 21 | 15:45 | 5 | 8 | 14 | Data sharing. Catalogues, metadata, search. What's working? | Paul Hodgson | GovCamp 2023 notes : Session 5, room 8 |

50 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1A | Online | N/A | Public sector organisations are in continual change.* Can we manage change better? Bring along your good and bad examples of planning for, implementing and adapting change work. Change theorists, change managers as well as those subject to change most welcome. *Well, the ones I have worked at seem to have been in continual change. | Mark Dalgarno @markdalgarno | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1A |
51 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1B | Online | N/A | How do we make digital sustainable? (in every sense). How can digital last for decades, and not be just about the next big delivery? Building permanent teams, considering use of energy and other resources, avoiding accumulating legacy, being flexible enough for the next big unknown challenge, making the money work. | Dave Rogers @daverog | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1B |
52 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1C | Online | N/A | Campfire chat: Openness and transparency. At Unboxed, openness and transparency is one of our core values, and we’ve recently been discussing what it means and what it looks like in post-covid working environments. Join us for a group conversation to share your experiences of openness and transparency; why we should be open and transparent, your experiences of what works and doesn’t, and hear more about how Unboxed tries to bring openness and transparency to our day to day work, within our own organisation and with clients. | Holly & Yasmeen | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1C |
53 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1D | Online | N/A | Local Gov as a Product/Platform/Service. Local gov uses hundreds of digital applications to deliver its services, provided by just as many suppliers and using a huge range of technologies. Very little is currently open source, but this is starting to change. What are the best approaches to take to work towards an open source set of tools which could be offered as products, combined into a platform and or available as a service? What’s stopping us? What’s already out there? And is that even the right approach?! | Glen Ocsko @glenocsko | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1D |
54 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1E | Online | N/A | The (absolute?) state of open government. It's been a... challenging few years for open government in the UK (and elsewhere). What can we do about it? Where can we make progress? *How* can we make progress? What should the big asks be? Does the idea still resonate? Is it the right thing to focus on? Am I being too pessimistic? | Gavin Freeguard @gavinfreeguard | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1E |
55 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1F | Online | N/A | Bringing real people all the way into the ‘policy tent’ can be scary, but also incredibly fulfilling. Working with, not for, people is taking a step beyond some of our more frequently used design approaches. Join us to talk about how co-design (not just User Centred Design!) has helped us make the right decisions for the future of farming. We’ll be diving into our experiences designing new farm health and welfare policy; why we decided to co-design; what we almost got wrong; and how we’ve helped empower industry to influence the right change. Join us to share your share your wins, wants and woes in doing co-design, and help us think about how we can better shape things to level the playing field to allow for even better-informed policy and service design across government. Whether you are a co-design expert, or are asking “what is co-design?” everyone is welcome in this tent! | Neville Cavendish @nevccavendish Martin Jenkins Marion Lean @maristotle | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1F |
56 | 2022 | 1 | 10:30 | 1G | Online | N/A | I am still hearing people say that they are in back to back video calls. Are we getting better at remote & hybrid working 🤣? How might we improve things e.g. working asynchronously. What methods (and tools) are working | Sharon Dale @pixlz | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 1G |
57 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2A | Online | N/A | Operating Models - what a difference a year makes... Come and celebrate with us! At Govcamp 2021 we came to a session on operating models and decided we were going to do something to help explain them... so we did! We wanted to share the story of the community we've built over the last year, the resource we've developed and get input on what next in 2022. So if you're energised or terrified by operating models (current or target) or want to talk community building, please join us for a session set by whoever turns up! | Mark Buttanshaw @buttansma Richard Barton @CIOPortfolio | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2A |
58 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2B | Online | N/A | UN Sustainable Development Goals I’m an Expert Advisor at the United Nations and I’m looking to get input from the UKGC22 folks for data challenges you need us to solve to create impact for citizens you support. Let’s deliver on the UN Sustainable Development Goals together! | Dr Jacqui Taylor @jacquitaylorfb | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2B |
59 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2C | Online | N/A | How to talk about agile to non-digital audiences Digital teams have learned how to do GDS style agile delivery. But there can be difficulty convincing the rest of the organisation – especially decision makers and non-digital teams – if they have little experience with agile. Particularly in local government, or smaller departments. When you can see immediate benefits to adopting waterfall, then discovery, alpha, beta, live phases can seem long-winded, and narratives and terminology around agile methodologies can seem frivolous or impenetrable. Let’s explore how to talk to non-digital people and teams about the benefits of an agile approach. | Annie Heath @Annie3H | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2C |
60 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2D | Online | N/A | Lots of Service Owners in government are one of very few (sometimes the only!) in their organisation. Often, they're drafted in to a digital leadership role from a subject matter expert role. With the Service Owner training on pause, how do new Service (and Product) Owners find peer support and resources? How do we support subject matter experts in digital leadership roles? How can digital teams organise to better learn from the wealth of subject and policy expertise these leaders often bring? | Ellie Craven | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2D |
61 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2E | Online | N/A | Tech isn't good at cataloguing history, and government favours certain stories being put to history (usually successes, often with white dudes saving the day, and often dropped when different parties come in to power). What are techniques for intelligently sharing history, and having storytellers like the Irish Seanchaí? | Vicky Teinaki @vickytnz | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2E |
62 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2F | Online | N/A | Struggling to deliver and measure Open Data Impact? Data reuse to the rescue! Open data is critically for transparency but let's face it Open Data without reuse doesn’t create impact. Managing the ecosystem of publishers and users is key to increase data re-use. Focusing on High value - high demand datasets in an easy to access and reusable format is critical. Delivering actionable data insights is really the name of the games. | Adriano Amaral @didi_amaral @derilinx | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2F |
63 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2G | Online | N/A | Yes you can deliver an entirely new service in a fortnight! My pitch: In late January 2021 the UK Government decided to introduce a Managed Quarantine Service for people arriving from Red List countries. A team was quickly created to bring this new service into production for travellers arriving into the UK from 15th February. This multi-disciplinary team took the service from concept to production in two weeks, proving to us all how with the right sponsorship, focus, attitude, drive, and pragmatism it really is possible to deliver an MVP at pace. In this session I will tell the story of the Managed Quarantine Service and we can discuss how to learn from this experience so that we can deliver other government services at pace. | Danny Williams @willidh | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2G |
64 | 2022 | 1 | 11:30 | 2H | Online | N/A | NFTs for you and me?! Join me in this session where I'll share more about my voyage of discovery into the world of NFTs (Non-fungible tokens) and potential use cases for the public sector (and beyond!) | Andy Sandford @leanandagile | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 2H |
65 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3A | Online | N/A | One Team Gov: Around the World. Our objective is to encourage folks working in government around the world, especially in developing nations, to do one simple thing - join the One Team Gov slack. There's loads of great organisations to connect up global public servants but so far none of them have prioritised real-time chat. We want to build a global community of people discussing their triumphs, issues and questions about policy and delivery - as well as just getting to know each other as people. So far there's a small group of us from the UK and Canada working on this. I'm keen to discuss how we can make it happen. | David Durant @cholten99 | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3A |
66 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3B | Online | N/A | How can we track the unintended consequences of policy actions across the government system? Government policies generate strategies and actions (typically within a Ministerial silo) that then have consequences (positive or negative) in other parts of the government system. For example a cost saving action in the Health service could well lead (inadvertently) to a new cost pressure in the Social services sector. Taking a systems view also requires factoring in the various constraints imposed by legislation. Is it possible to model all these inter relationships so that we can see how our proposed policy intervention could impact other parts of the system? I don't know. Shall we try to find out? I propose this session as a thinking experiment and using Immigration policy as an example to keep it a bit focussed and manageable. | Esko Reinikainen @reinikainen | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3B |
67 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3C | Online | N/A | Open space chat for those working outside central government Do you work outside central government? It's hard to recruit at the moment and it's harder, in smaller organisations, to demonstrate the breadth of approaches in digital work. I have been thinking about running something a bit like Teacamp with a short presentation and some open space to talk. I'm interested to talk to people who are working in smaller teams and how we can support each other to create spaces for learning, empathy, sharing and complaining! | Alex Blandford @blangry | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3C |
68 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3D | Online | N/A | Can UK Public Services thrive working as remote/distributed teams? Due to the pandemic, over the past 2 years we've all learned so much with regards to working as remote, distributed teams. Join me to talk discuss this question and share your views. | Matt Barnaby @matthewbarnaby | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3D |
69 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3E | Online | N/A | How do we hire more diversely, equitably and inclusively? An ideas and experiences sharing session. I'll be using trello, anyone is welcome to add thoughts there and hopefully it'll act as a resource we can add to in the future. | Vanessa Montgomery Williams @veewilliams_ | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3E |
70 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3F | Online | N/A | Successful Hybrid Gatherings. ‘Hybrid’ gatherings - meetings and events where some people are in the same physical space while others are remote - tend to be horrible, with remote people left feeling disenfranchised. Yet research shows that people can enjoy them and find them useful. A space for sharing good-practice tips and tricks and developing new possibilities. | Judy Rees @judyrees | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3F |
71 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3G | Online | N/A | Imagine you want to change something on a big scale. You know where you are. You know where you want to be. But how do you know HOW to get there? How do you know what changes will work? How do you get people to make those changes? How does it all line up to organisational priorities? We (in Data Quality Hub & CDDO) are interested in this because we’re working on a data maturity model that will show government organisations how they’re doing at data. But knowing is just the start, they need to make the right changes in an effective way. So where do you start? How do you plan a journey to bridge that gap? | Rhian Jones & Rebecca Strickland @beckstrickland | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3G |
72 | 2022 | 1 | 13:45 | 3H | Online | N/A | Designing complex services We are pretty good at designing transactional and logical services, but what happens when we delve into the more complex services? What happens with ASC, homelessness, housing allocations, etc? | John Mortimer | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 3H |
73 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4A | Online | N/A | Uncertainty! What helps us cope with it? When is it useful? How can leaders lead well in times of uncertainty and what does it take to do that? Uncertainty is stressful. Our brains naturally try to avoid it, which can be unhelpful. Living through a pandemic = uncertainty overload. But uncertainty can also be valuable and useful and something to actively embrace/encourage in our work. So let's think together about our relationship with it. | Annie Crabtree @thisisacrab | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4A |
74 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4B | Online | N/A | Building future services: balancing agility, HCD and legislation implementation. Is anyone else trying to build future services with agility and using human centred methods, but where 'live' dates are ultimately determined by primary legislation implementation? How does private beta and scalability work when there is a binary cutover? We're working in a team including policy and more traditional 'digital' roles together to try and deliver legislative change and a future service so can talk about how we're trying to do it a bit if others are interested, otherwise I would love to hear from others with a similar challenges! It's lonely! | Simon Manby @ManbySi | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4B |
75 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4C | Online | N/A | Update Gov Campers on A Modern Civil Service and what's going on across Government Modernisation and Reform - before picking one section of the programme with Campers to discuss in greater detail, taking their feedback away to the relevant project team | Alex Vince @GumpyvonBear | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4C |
76 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4D | Online | N/A | An introduction to designing a complexity-friendly public consultation, and a chance to discuss the importance of going beyond superficial diversity to diversity of sense-making. | Anne @welshflier | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4D |
77 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4E | Online | N/A | Moving beyond targets and creating the conditions for success In complex environments, goals/targets/KPIs/SLAs/OKRs don't work very well as they depend on coercion. We know that, instead, we should start a journey and develop the opportunities that emerge along the way. But how to do that in practice? Join this open discussion to share your tips and experience of moving beyond targets and creating the conditions for intrinsically motivated teams to build great solutions. | Paul @PaulSMcTurk | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4E |
78 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4F | Online | N/A | We know that teams are becoming increasingly multi-locational, how to best facilitate this and support headcount growth in “new” locations? What more can we do to ensure new starters in smaller offices/remote feel included within existing team cultures? How best do we encourage more people to move to these emergent locations? We collect data on where technologists in UK Government work and will bring some of this along to help facilitate. | Jack Hunnaball | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4F |
79 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4G | Online | N/A | The really ugly hard bits of transformation - deleting / changing peoples' jobs A session of benefits realisation goodness. Ideally we'll save localgov and all of our jobs by generating more income and working more efficiently, but sometimes we have to look at cuts and changing what we do - even when we don't want to. So let's talk about the ugly cutting / hard side of change. I'd love to hear your thoughts. | Jon Hyde @kurt_wh | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4G |
80 | 2022 | 1 | 14:45 | 4H | Online | N/A | Building a DDAT function inside a Government department DCMS (Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport) is building its DDaT function! Come hear about the plans, the future role opportunities and share your insights for getting it right. | Betony Kelly @betonykelly | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 4H |
81 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5A | Online | N/A | Craft bring and share. Lots of us do various sorts of crafting. Bring a current, future, or finished project to show off or to get inspiration. Or enjoy 45mins of your craft while you hear about others. | Caroline Jarrett @cjforms | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5A |
82 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5B | Online | N/A | Designing amidst organisational politics. Organisational politics affects what we can do and how we can do it when designing services and organisations. So how can we deal with it/work around it/address it? Am initially thinking about this in terms of impacts on organisation design and service design because can get quickly into people implications, but open to this becoming a wider discussion on organisational politics. I don't have answers but would love to talk about what people have found works or doesn't work. | Mark Buttanshaw @buttansma | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5B |
83 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5C | Online | N/A | Come and talk about the Agile Service Manifesto! We've come a long way since the Manifesto for Agile Software Development was created in 2001. The Agile Service Manifesto (https://www.agileservicemanifesto.org/) has since been created, tailoring the original Agile vision to the requirements of our public service sector. So we have the principles, we know the approach, but what do we find if we go a little deeper. At the deepest level, what are the values that underpin this approach? What is the view of the world that the Agile Manifesto sets out, and how does the approach help us to interact with and find our place within it? | Max Goodall | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5C |
84 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5D | Online | N/A | What's in store for government digital services in 2022 and beyond? From identity management, to data sovereignty, to open source by default and more - what do we think will be the big "things" this year and how can we make the most of them? | Antonio Weiss (@antonioeweiss) Phil Buckley (@philbuckley5) Katie Burns | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5D |
85 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5E | Online | N/A | Responsible design and research: is user ‘centred’ the right way to do things? Should it be more holistic - what about impact on society, environment, community etc? How can we balance our responsibilities to our users with our impact more broadly? | Annie Lewis | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5E |
86 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5F | Online | N/A | Driving data change through stories. A compelling and authentic narrative can help people buy in to any idea, including why an org might need to manage data better. Could a resource pack guiding people to their data story, and how to use it to market data improvements, help? What should go in a “how to own and communicate your data story” pack? How could it be delivered? A discussion about whether this idea is a yay or a ney, and if yay, what it should be(y) | Kathryn Reynolds @katywrens | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5F |
87 | 2022 | 1 | 15:45 | 5G | Online | N/A | How’s your mental health? What are your coping mechanisms? How openly can you talk about it? How is your org helping? How can things be improved? | @kurt_wh | UK GovCamp 2022: Friday, session 5G |
88 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1A | Online | N/A | Ethical Walls: When should data not be shared? Local & Central Government collects lots of data, some of it given voluntarily, some of it required by legislation. Pooling this data gives great power to provide improved services, and to find new and innovative ways of working to meet targets, identify those who require support and promote joined up working. But when should this data not be pooled? Should data required for a benefit application be used to identify housing support needs? Should electoral registration data be used to find unregistered Houses of Multiple Occupation? What should we /not/ do with data! | Jonathan Chandler | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1A |
89 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1B | Online | N/A | What makes an inclusive culture? An ideas and experiences sharing session. I'll be using trello, anyone is welcome to add thoughts there and hopefully it'll act as a resource we can add to in the future. | Vanessa Montgomery Williams @veewilliams_ | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1B |
90 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1C | Online | N/A | 43 Shades of Grey - It’s easy to say everything is perfect. Or everything is terrible. But it’s always FAR more complex than that! When we quantify how a whole organisation is doing at something, how do we do it in a way that properly recognises good practice (without over-inflating it) and properly calls out bad practice (without bringing everyone down unfairly)? Can we get a whole organisation view without overinflating extremes or washing out the nuance into a shade of grey? Or are UK Gov organisations just too complex to summarise? | Matt Thompson @DocMattThompson | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1C |
91 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1D | Online | N/A | GDS got digital first, then service teams, now everyone got it; even HMT, which in the last budget redefined values of variables in UC and defined for DWP by when they'd be set and how... What might better/future use of these levers look like? Some examples of digital levers being used for various purposes (across gov) are in annex 5: https://medconfidential.org/2020/universal-credit/ | Sam Smith @smithsam | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1D |
92 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1E | Online | N/A | What is (or could be) the metaverse? Is there any policy work we should be doing as the concept (and maybe something real) evolves? | Sweyn Hunter @sweynh | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1E |
93 | 2022 | 2 | 10:30 | 1F | Online | N/A | Breaking down siloes, engaging teams across organisations to help plan and work differently. At the UKHO (UK Hydrographic Office) in Taunton, we were tasked with fundamentally changing the way the organisation planned work. We had to turn a corporate plan with 157 lines of outputs into a more outcome based, adaptive and iterative plan, breaking down the siloes across the org. We got stuff wrong, we made huge strides forward and it sprung back a little but I think we started to help build a new culture about people, small change, working across disciplines and accepting risk. Come and share your similar experiences! | @trotty1606 | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 1F |
94 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2A | Online | N/A | What's in a name? What are the issues behind "official" domain names? Do we need just one domain to rule them all? What problems are caused by multiple domain names? Should we have a free-for-all? Do tiny councils even want to run a website? Come chat about all things domain names - be they .gov.uk, .police.uk, .parliament.uk, .royal.uk etc. | Terence Eden / @edent | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2A |
95 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2B | Online | N/A | The 1921 UK census has just been published - yay!!!! It's behind a paywall with excessive t's and c's - boo!!!!!!! Join me to discuss if we can free this particular information, which is the kind of information that probably does want to be free | Peter Wells/ @peterkwells | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2B |
96 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2C | Online | N/A | In June 2021 the Ministry of Justice announced a boost for open justice, with The National Archives (TNA) to publish Court Judgments and Tribunal Decisions from April this year. Why now? What's so special about court judgments and why is TNA involved? What are we doing and what are the snags? (NB: there are lots of snags!). What advice do GovCampers have about building digital services really fast, and then iterating quickly? Dos / don't / hints / tips / and a chance to generally discuss something really interesting. | John Sheridan / @johnlsheridan | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2C |
97 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2D | Online | N/A | Session didn't take place | ||
98 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2E | Online | N/A | How do services work better with GDS and GOV.UK? I work on Universal Credit, and we use GOV.UK a lot for users at the start of their journeys into Universal Credit. GDS owns the mainstream content on GOV.UK. I sometimes find that different ways of working (#zendesk), lack of domain knowledge and strict rules on proposition and data share can create problems when we're designing end-to-end. How do we work well together to create awesome user journeys, no matter where the start button goes? | Angela Moore @copycontentco | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2E |
99 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2F | Opposite of hard, annoying, lame and frustrating commissioning - the strategy circle in action with fingerpainting. Learn the skills to quickly filter buyer group needs in one page. | @parmanjohn | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2F | ||
100 | 2022 | 2 | 11:30 | 2G | Coffee chat session, just to meet people - Come meet a Canadian (im canadian) and I could answer questions about how Canada does stuff. | @DerekAlton | UK GovCamp 2022: Saturday, session 2G |
