Policy Sprint

= process to arrive at a quick collective consensus regarding policy proposals, proposed by Dr. Mark Elliot?

Description

"On Tuesday, Dr. Elliott will give a brief presentation of his work, and then will facilitate a workshop on collaborative policy building. Our group has discussed hosting a "policy sprint" at previous meetings. In short, the goal is to build a process for using citizen expertise to develop better policy. A "policy sprint" is an attempt to complete a policy proposal in a short period of time (more explanation here). The focus of Tuesday's meeting will be to develop a process and a toolset for future policy sprints, such as the event that we are planning for late Spring.

So wear your wonk hat, and come prepared with specific policy ideas that you'd like to explore. We need to take this policy sprint concept for a test drive." (http://www.meetup.com/opengovnyc/calendar/10234024/)
