About the Collaboration Project
The Collaboration Project is an independent forum of leaders committed to leveraging web 2.0 and the benefits of collaborative technology to solve government's complex problems. Powered by the National Academy of Public Administration, this "wikified" space is designed to share ideas, examples and insights on the adoption of Web 2.0 technologies in the field of public governance.
With the support of dedicated staff and access to the National Academy's distinguished Fellows, subject matter experts, and leadership, the Collaboration Project convenes members in person and via the Project's virtual collaboration space to share "promising practices," lighthouse cases, white papers and leadership tools for implementation. Join the Collaboration Project today!
We encourage you to help create a vibrant community by adding your thoughts and ideas, challenges and opportunities, to this site to help each other in the creation of strategies and frameworks to enable Government 2.0 transformation.
