This conference will provide practitioners and theoreticians with the opportunity to:
– share their global experience of OFE as an innovation pathway
– contribute their insights to explain OFE processes and develop the OFE sciences
– suggest recommendations and guidelines to support OFE implementation and institutionalisation

The #OFE2021 conference outputs will include a OECD-supported report bringing together the lessons learned and the implications for policy linkages, and a book or special issue in an international journal based on the conference proceedings (presentations and posters).

The 4 major themes of the plenary are:
– Value creation
– People and processes
– Data and analytics
– Policy linkages

The production of #OFE2021 will be multiple: a report bringing together the lessons learned and the implications for policy linkages, supported by OECD, and a book or a special issue in a review, based on conference proceedings (presentations and posters).
