Digital ThinkTanking in Times of Covid-19

Digital Thinktanking is a webtalk series co-created by DGAP, WonkComms, and Soapbox in response to the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic for think tank work. The seven-part series brought together the international think tank community to better understand how we can continue our work under lockdown. Once a week, experts from our community shared tips and tools on how to put your think tank work online.

Topics included:

• How to bring face-to-face events online
• How to communicate authoritative information in a post-truth environment
• How do political processes change due to Corona
• How to enable safe spaces for sensitive conversations online
• How to bring more life to think tank data visualizations
• How Covid-19 affects the relationship between science and politics
• How to adapt your impact strategy through organizational learning
