Go to http://maakhetmee.redesignme.com to join in!

After a afternoon of debating by the jury-council. They decided to nominate 5 themes, where you can recognize the different redesigns. The themes are: T1. Closing the gap between government and citizen, T2. Forum, T3. Interactive pillar, T4. Directed information, T5. More right of say to the citizens.
Each theme has one winner who is rewarded with 1000 RDM’s, look at Rewarded with RDM’s for the winners. From these 5 winners there will be one overall winner. This winner will be rewarded with a bonus of 2000 RDM’s on top of his 1000 RDM’s. The winner, announced on the 9th of February, is Interaction on the spot by InnovationQueens.

Phase 2
We think that the winning idea can be improved by combining the strong aspects of other ideas within the same theme. That’s why we start a second phase in this challenge. The kick-off will take place in a meeting on 9 February at 19:30 hours at the town hall of Eindhoven city.  And al the challenge participants are invited.

At this meeting all the theme winners get a moment to present their theme. Of course after this there is room for discussion.

Each theme (with the winner as community manager) gets another two weeks time to continue developing their theme. On the 9th of Februari the 5 themes each get a new challenge on http://maakhetmee.redesignme.com (online NOW!). You can post your development suggestions here. Everyone with an idea for improvement can join the theme winner into winning the Audience Award as a team. So please all participate actively so your theme will win!

Audience Award
When the managers processed the comments, the residents of Eindhoven have the opportunity to vote for their favorite idea. In this way the people of Eindhoven also receive a vote in this challenge. around the end of February the final version will be released on: www.einhoven.nl/maakhetmee

After that the population of Eindhoven will give their vote to one of the five 5 improved themes. The winning theme receives the audience bonus of an extra 3000 RDM’s. Try to run campaign for your idea, so you get as many votes as possible. The final results will be used by the city-council as input for a plan, to improve the development of digital interactive communication tools.

Community Manager Co-creation Challenge

 

How would you like to use different ways of digital communication to communicate with the local government? On which topics would you like to share your opinions and ideas? And how should that be designed? We like to hear those ideas in this co-creation challenge.

 

The local government of Eindhoven, the Netherlands, thinks it is important that everyone can think along with municipal plans in an early stage of the process. This because they are convinced that these plans and projects are further improved with the input from habitants of the city. Until now we do this mostly through gatherings where people can give their opinion and there is the possibility to respond ‘on paper’. Internet and other channels of digital communication could play a bigger part here. The same goes for inhabitants, when they have questions or want to report something about their neighborhood or city, they also need a fast and easy way of getting in contact with the local government when they have questions or want to report something.

 

To make it more easy and accessible to think and talk along, the local government of Eindhoven wants to make more and better use of the Internet and other digital ways to communicate. Before we start to think about how these digital ways of communicating should look like, we want to listen to the ideas and wishes of the inhabitants of Eindhoven and others interested.

 

The local government of Eindhoven is asking the inhabitants of Eindhoven and other creative minds to join in the development of an innovative and interactive way to communicate.

Post your ideas and take your chance to earn 250 RDMs and a bonus of 2000 RDMs!

 

 

A professional jury will be formed to judge the ideas that are sent in. The nice/good ideas will be taken along to the web team of the local government, who will take the best ideas along in the further development of new digital, interactive ways of communication.
