The OECD Observatory of Public Sector Innovation (OPSI) and its partners at the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation are excited to convene innovators from around the world for a conference on Innovation in Government: The New Normal on 20-21 November 2017. The conference will highlight insights from OPSI’s work with countries that are transforming their operations and improving the lives of their people through innovation. It will bring together government leaders, public servants, and innovative partners in industry and civil society to connect, share experiences, and collaborate.

The aim of this talk will be to discuss the challenges to apply innovative methods and disciplines such as behavioural economics and experimentation in developing countries like Mexico. The main takeaway will be a roadmap on how to achieve this goal, a lot has been said about Nudge or Innovation Units in developed countries, however –in our experience- different strategies need to be applied in countries with less developed institutions to guarantee autonomy, sustainability, and gold standards. Moreover, we will present some results applying behavioural economics and experimentation to tackle some of the big challenges in México: corruption and gender equality.
