Key enablers of digital-ready policymaking: multidisciplinary teams & tools

 Under the ISA2 programme our legal interoperability team  set the ambition to foster better legislation for smoother implementation, by promoting digital-ready policymaking  on the one hand, and by exploring how technology may support lawmaking  on the other. During our journey so far, we learned that while policymakers are eager to embrace digital-ready considerations and technology in policymaking, they need support to make the first steps…  

… and what may such support entail? We believe that multidisciplinary teams, new skills and adequate tools are the key ingredients. In this interactive workshop, we invite you to explore with us each of these angles. Be assured, we will not be on our own in this endeavor: our soon-to-be-revealed speakers and panelists will help us deep-dive in the advantages and pitfalls of multidisciplinary policymaking and share their view on how a tool like LEOS  (Legislation Editing Open Software) can facilitate multidisciplinary lawmaking. As a bonus, the LEOS team will be sharing some of the lessons learned from their experience with applying the multidisciplinary principle from the start, in the development of open source interoperable solution. 

Join our session to harvest together some lessons learned, which may feed our legal interoperability work under the Digital Europe Programme.
