#LockDownDebate: Rapid online deliberation on COVID-19 technologies

Jointly hosted by Traverse, the Ada Lovelace Institute, Involve and Bang the Table.

Together, our organisations have been collaborating to trial a rapid, online deliberation with 25 members of the public to talk about COVID-19 exit strategies. Based on the principles of good deliberative practice, we tested a new engagement methodology while traditional face to face methods for public deliberation have not been possible.

We are doing this as openly as we can, as during this time we think it is essential that researchers, policymakers, and the public share lessons and learn from each other. This session is a chance to share our learning and hear from others who are working online in the pandemic.
