Public Sector Digital Lab
Public Sector Digital Lab is the laboratory of organizational design and organizational change in the public sector related to the research project entitled “Towards an agile public sector: reinventing the public administration by designing human-centred and sustainable organizational models, HRM practices and work(places)”. The project has been funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research within the PRIN PNRR 2022 program.
A theoretical and practical impact on the public sector
We participate to, and organize, many tracks at scientific conferences and we design and coordinate training initiatives for public employees.
Conferences
We actively engage with the most important international conferences (e.g., EGOS, EURAM, IFKAD) to solicit the scientific debate on the issues related to the public management and the digital transformation as well as the new forms of working in the public sector.

Towards an Agile Public Sector
This project aims to explore the new forms of working embraced by technology and digital tools and how they support the design of agile and sustainable organizational models in the public sector. In this regard, this research will create a connection between the fields of public sector, agile forms of working, human-centred and ethical development, implementation and use, and sustainability.
