Summary
This chapter argues that co-creation requires what new research refers to as generative governance. It first explores the meaning of the term “generative” and the concept of “generativity,” and then examines some key components of generative governance (interactions, tools, processes, and institutions) and how they relate to co-creation. The main argument is that generative governance involves the formation of platforms that in turn foster arenas where co-creation processes can unfold.
