Global Trends in Government Innovation 2023
In the face of what has increasingly been referred to as an ongoing “permacrisis”,
governments must cope with and respond to emerging threats while already grappling
with longstanding issues such as climate change, digital disruption and low levels
of trust. In this context, understanding new approaches and spreading successful ideas
has never been more important. To promote this, the OECD Observatory of Public Sector
Innovation (OPSI) has analysed 1 084 innovative initiatives from 94 countries to derive
and understand novel government practices. The report discusses four key trends: 1)
new forms of accountability for a new era of government, 2) new approaches to care,
3) new methods for preserving identities and strengthening equity and 4) new ways
of engaging citizens and residents. Ten case studies and dozens of supporting examples
illustrate these trends.
