Blog and Social Media
The INLOGOV blog is home to DPAP's latest news and outputs. It’s a key venue for connecting with the wider world and showcasing the outstanding and world-class thinking and research we engage in. Contributions are typically from DPAP faculty, associates or students and focus on outputs, events and current affairs related to local government. We also provide a forum for local government researchers and stakeholders to present and debate their perspectives on issues relevant to the sector. INLOGOV is also active on Bluesky, X (Twitter), and LinkedIn.
