GOOD LA Presents: Making Transportation in LA Suck Less
Event Details
How often do you get the finger while getting around LA?
We live in one of the best cities in world – so why is everybody so angry and aggressive on the roads?
On Thursday, May 30, we’re bringing together LA groups to roll out big ideas and creative solutions for how to make transportation of all kinds more fun.
Join us at the Hub LA for a screening of the aggressive driving documentary “How’s My Driving”, and then a moderated workshop with awesome local groups who are deploying their own creative solutions for enjoyable transit. We’ll end the evening with a challenge to the audience to bring back the courtesy wave on a daily basis – the more exaggerated and audacious the better!

@TheHubLA – GovJam
GOVJAM LA 2013
WHAT IS GOVJAM?
GovJam LA is happening in the new Hub Media Lab space from June 4-6, and you are invited! We want to bring together gov folks, designers, and engaged citizens to re-imagine the way public services are delivered. During the 2.5-day Global Gov Jam event, small local teams will collaborate across sectors to prototype new services around education, healthcare, public transportation, or the public sector of their choice. You’ll learn new skills that will bring inspiration, innovation, and design thinking into your daily work.
WHY SHOULD YOU PARTICIPATE?
-Are you looking to improve the “customer experience” of citizens interacting with healthcare, education, public transportation, policy, governance, and so much more?
-Are you looking for new approaches to tackle problems and create innovative solutions?
-Are you looking to meet an amazing group of passionate people, learn new skills, and have fun doing it?
Then GovJam is for you!
Register here: http://govjamlosangeles.eventbrite.com/
Cost: $15 for Hub LA members / $30 for public
WHEN IS GOVJAM?
GovJam is a 2.5 day event on June 4, 5, and 6 (Tuesday evening, Wednesday 9-5, and Thursday 9-5)
We scheduled this during the workweek because it’s a global happening over the same 48 hours. Yes, you’ll have to be away from work, but you’re going to learn things from the process and your fellow attendees. We believe it’s a pretty rockin’ professional development opportunity and can help you convince your boss if needed.
