It brought the whole LAA process to life and filled in most of the gaps in my understanding in spite of all the reading materials available.

Planit-LAA learning simulation (serious game)

Planit-LAA ‘shows’ how decisions impact socially, environmentally, AND economically. The Learning Simulation considers the design and implementation of Local Area Agreements (LAA) and uses the 198 National Indicators.

The learning simulation has been used by Government Offices (via Challenge to Change Fund), local councils for member training (including the Learn to Deliver programme in the West Midlands), LAA awareness and target setting, and sustainability proofing. Planit-LAA was recommended in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister LAA Toolkit (page 13). Planit-LAA has been used by over 50 Local Authorities and their partners including Oldham MBC, Cumbria Partnership, Wirral Local Strategic Partnership and a number of partnerships in the Northeast.

Planit-LAA models the life of a community. Teams play the role of a local strategic partnership (LSP). LAA indicators are chosen from the National Indicator set. The partnership need to make the community sustainable and deliver the LAA. Win-win-win solutions need to be negotiated and incidents avoided. Finally, after each round, the teams are scored on their chosen indicators (LAA), Comprehensive Area Assessment (CAA) and political issues.

Applications/Outcomes:

Understanding the issues in terms of cause and effect rather than silo perspective.
Broadening the design input into the LAA and strengthening partnership working.
Improving the implementation of LAA and sustainable communities.
