Jury

We are excited to introduce our 2026 festival jury!

Since the festival’s conception our aim has always been to create a practice-focused programme that shines a light on the pioneers and unsung heroes working in and with public administrations. People, projects and ideas on a mission to change how old bureaucracies think, plan and act through creative problem-solving.

To find more of these hidden talents we introduced our annual Call for Participation. A call to all creative bureaucrats to submit their ideas and have a chance to present them to a global community of fellow peers. Since we are receiving an ever greater volume of brilliant submissions, we knew we needed support in selecting which to offer a stage.

Every year we invite a global jury – outstanding individuals who will support us in crafting a new festival programme that sparks imagination, challenges the status quo, and showcases bold projects for the greater good. More jury members from our main festival partner PD – Berater der öffentlichen Hand will be announced shortly.
