Urban Policy Advisory Group
Continuing our relationships with the Harvard Kennedy School and Living Cities, Bureau Blank has built a web portal for the Urban Policy Advisory Group.
The Urban Policy Advisory Group (UPAG) is a unique collaboration between chiefs of staff, deputy mayors, and policy directors from some of the country's largest urban centers coming together to discuss emerging issues and craft recommendations to drive innovation. Based at Harvard Kennedy School's Ash Institute for Democratic Governance and Innovation, UPAG is supported by Living Cities and the Rockefeller Foundation.
The online portal serves as a much-needed central hub of activity for this group whose members are located in all corners of the country. It features:
- login-protected, members-only access
- blog for posting updates as well as shared resources
- real-time discussion feed that members can access online and via mobile
- searchable directory of members and contact information
- email digest and alerts for members to track updates to posts and discussions
The UPAG site joins the Living Cities members portal and A.S. Diamonds mobile inventory site as our latest privileged-access project. Drop us a line at mail@bureaublank.com if you have one in mind for your company!
