Bogotá Gov Jam
The Bogotá Gov Jam is a 48 hour meeting in which citizens and public servants of a multidisciplinary background come together to generate innovative solutions to challenges and problems of the public sector through methodologies of design thinking and service design. The event has been held annually in Bogotá with the creator of the group of the international level event since 2014, although since 2011 one can already find the development of a similar case for the creation of educational video games for the prevention of disasters. Between 2014 and 2016 citizens and public officials have generated more than 20 projects in formats of virtual platforms, videos and systems, among others, in subjects related to victims, reintegration, education, mobility, citizen?s rights, infrastructure and transparency.
