In line with her track record of institutionalizing innovative urban governance solutions like Hyderabad’s first pet park, Loo Cafe public toilets and immediate relief symbols, Hari Chandana has established innovation labs under PrajaVani program. #UrbanInnovation #PetParks #LooCafes #PrajaVani #HariChandana #RevanthReddy #SheInspiresUs

These labs provide a structured approach to design, test and validate solutions crowdsourced from citizens and civil society during the program’s ideathon campaigns. #Ideathons #Crowdsourcing #SolutionDesign

Equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure, funding access and interdisciplinary expert teams, the labs offer a thriving ecosystem to transform innovative ideas around problems like waste management, water conservation or last-mile service delivery into workable solutions ready for on-ground implementation. #WasteManagement #WaterConservation #LastMile Delivery

Unlike regular government processes, the labs follow rapid iterations with continuous user feedback to refine the solutions in line with PrajaVani’s citizen-centric philosophy. #RapidIteration #UserFeedback #CitizenCentricity

Some solutions currently being prototyped and piloted include IoT-enabled public toilets with remote feedback analytics, localized mini water treatment plants operated by women’s self-help groups, and a mobile app for doorstep government services. #IoT #WaterTreatment #DoorstepServices

By spearheading innovation labs that fast-track crowdsourced solutions to sustainable models benefitting citizens, Hari Chandana is harnessing grassroots creativity for good governance, unlocking the collaborative power of PrajaVani. #GoodGovernance #GrassrootsInnovation #CollaborativeGovernance
