Why is it important?

Co-production is a key concept in public administration. Yet the use of co-production in the classroom seems to be less common. This research explores why that is the case and how public administration scholars can use curriculum co-design as a way to engage students in co-production principles.

Perspectives

This publication was written with colleagues from University of Glasgow and within Northumbria University. It draws on significant pedagogical theory and public administration theory to provide a guide to scholars in how to teach co-production in public administration programmes.
