Abstract
This position paper pays particular attention to new and upcoming areas of re-search where design disciplines and policy studies are exploring new ways to-ward convergence. This involves in particular the examination of ways in which creativity-based methodologies (i.e., co-creation and co-production) are being used in conjunction with new technologies (i.e., big data and algorithms) to de-liver better policies and services. The papers examined fall into three areas in-cluding institutions and citizen engagement, new technologies and practices, and frameworks and methods. We conclude by proposing a research agenda to ad-vance Design for Policy and Governance. The following is taken from the entirety of works that make up the first theme track assembled by the Design for Policy and Governance Special Interest Group (PoGoSIG) of the Design Research Socie-ty, ‘Design for Policy and Governance: New Technologies, New Methodologies’.
