This toolkit consists of handbooks and tools that support the adoption of a user-centric approach in the design of digital public services. It has been compiled in collaboration with OECD OPSI Toolkit Navigator, a curated collection of freely available toolkits, methodologies and case studies for public sector innovation.
In addition, you will find methods and handbooks developed and utilised by the UserCentriCities partner cities and regions in their own user centric service development, complemented with commentary videos by the city developers.
We are constantly developing the toolkit and welcome any feedback to usercentricities@lisboncouncil.net! The UserCentriCities community also warmly recommends you to explore more inspiring tools in the OPSI Toolkit Navigator.
