Hi Carrie,
I have been trying to find you something useful, which might instruct the GDS and GCN teams on what they are attempting to do. And it had to be Gov.uk centric.
So here is one link that illustrates two things. https://knowledgehub.local.gov.uk/web/kmteam/blog/-/blogs/11365865
It points at Michael Norton on the local government's knowledge hub. I'll leave it readers to see what Michael and the team have been doing for the past 4 &1/2 years, by reading his blog and rummaging around the hub. The hub provides a platform for GROUPS within the GDS and GCN to find one another, communicate and share their learning.
It wasn't too hard to find because these things always start from the bottom/local. National governments tend to think they are leading these developments, not (finally) responding to changes which have happened in their communities. Hope it's useful.
