‣ TOPIC:
**Democracy in Taiwan: The People-Public-Private Partnership**

‣ BIO:
**Shu Yang** is consultant & international liaison of PDIS.tw, who has worked with international teams as interaction designer and creative technologist before co-founded PDIS with the Digital Minister of Taiwan. She leverages her passion and skills in interaction design and HCI (Human Computer Interaction) to rethink the interaction between the government and the civil society. The computer science background helps her assist the digital transformation in Taiwan’s open government scene, sometimes with the power of VR and AI. She is interested in areas where design overlaps with ethics, policy making and artificial intelligence.

‣ VENUE SPONSOR
**Newspeak House** is an independent residential college founded in 2015 to study, nurture and inspire emerging communities of practice across civil society and the public sector in the UK. [https://newspeak.house](https://newspeak.house)

‣ ABOUT US
**g0v London** is an exploration of seeding a g0v community in London, UK. We are currently running hacknights roughly every 3 weeks and, with your support, aspire to run them weekly.

‣ INSPIRATION
**g0v** is a grassroots social movement community dedicated to deepening the civic engagements and connections between the social arena and citizens. It is a decentralised civic tech community with core values of information transparency, open results and open cooperation. [https://g0v.tw/intl/en/](https://g0v.tw/intl/en/)

**Civic Tech Toronto** is a diverse community of Torontonians interested in better understanding and finding solutions to civic challenges through technology, design or other means. They run weekly "civic hacknights for everyone", where people of all backgrounds and skill levels are welcome to attend. [https://link.civictech.ca/meetup](https://link.civictech.ca/meetup) (Civic Tech Toronto was in turn inspired by the values and format of Chicago's [ChiHackNight](https://chihacknight.org). )
