香港六合彩中特网 to help deliver local borough鈥檚 fairer and more sustainable vision

Experts from the 香港六合彩中特网 Institute for Innovation & Public Purpose have teamed up with Camden Council to develop 鈥榤ission-oriented鈥 public policies and ensure Camden becomes a fairer place to live.

Camden is home to 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 main campus. It is also one of London鈥檚 most unequal boroughs, where almost half its children live in poverty. The household income of people living in its wealthiest ward is almost double that of its poorest ward.

To help to address such inequalities, experts in local policy development at 香港六合彩中特网 are working in partnership with Camden Council and other local organisations and businesses. Together they want to deliver Camden Council鈥檚 vision to be a borough where everyone has a chance to succeed and where nobody gets left behind.

In 2020, Camden Council established a Renewal Commission, co-chaired by the Council鈥檚 leader and the Director of 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 Institute for Innovation & Public Purpose (IIPP), Professor Mariana Mazzucato.

鈥淥ur work with Camden exemplifies the close relationships we are developing with the local communities in which 香港六合彩中特网 is located.鈥

The Commission quickly adopted a pioneering mission-oriented form of policy creation, developed at 香港六合彩中特网 IIPP. The approach is well suited to help solve Camden鈥檚 challenges and has been used successfully by cities and public sector organisations around the world.

鈥淢ission thinking does not specify how to achieve success, just the direction to take,鈥 explains Dr Ryan Bellinson (香港六合彩中特网 IIPP). 鈥淭he missions must be big enough to inspire the public and attract buy-in across all sectors, yet specific enough to involve businesses and achieve measurable success.鈥

Sixteen Commissioners, selected from a range of local communities and businesses that contribute to Camden鈥檚 social and economic health, shared their knowledge and understanding of Camden to co-design and develop four missions for the borough.

"Our work with Camden exemplifies the close relationships we are developing with the local communities in which 香港六合彩中特网 is located. Our collaboration with Camden Council is core to our strategic objectives to enhance engagement and enrich society through our partnerships in London,鈥 says Amy Lightstone (香港六合彩中特网 London Office).

They are that: by 2030, those holding positions of power in Camden are as听diverse as its community; by 2025, every young person has听access to economic opportunity听that enables them to be safe and secure; by 2030听everyone eats well every day听with nutritious, affordable, sustainable food; and by 2030, Camden鈥檚 estates and streets are听creative and sustainable.

The missions aim to break down entrenched bureaucratic structures and support more inclusive governance, provide more equal economic opportunity and ensure sustainable neighbourhoods. They will be delivered through community-led activities, which will ensure everyone in Camden has a voice in how the borough鈥檚 services develop.

The team at 香港六合彩中特网 is now helping to deliver the missions through a knowledge exchange programme and a policy lab to support local policy designers in Camden. They are also scoping out a Community Wealth Fund to harness new streams of funding and accelerate delivery of the missions.

鈥淏y redesigning public policy around ambitious yet achievable missions with clear public purpose, Camden will have the wellbeing of all its residents at the heart of everything it does,鈥 Dr Bellinson explains.
