The Court of Justice of the State of Tocantins (TJTO) is committed to improve quality, efficiency and trust in the judicial system, thereby strengthening justice and citizenship in our society. To achieve this goal, the TJTO, through the Superior School of the Judges of the State of Tocantins (ESMAT), is promoting a series of activities for practicing innovation.
In this context, on Wednesday (September 20th), Esmat began the "Let's Gov - Innovation Laboratories in the Public Sector" Workshop. The event, which aims to foster a culture of innovation in the Judiciary of the State of Tocantins, brought together Judges and civil servers directly involved in the Innovation Management Policy of the Judiciary.
Juliana Rosa Barcelos Costa, an employee of the infrastructure and works directorate of TJTO, expressed her expectations of the activity, emphasizing the importance of the workshop. "This workshop is clarifying many doubts, even for the departments that were not fully involved in the first activities. This initiative has brought us important knowledge, dispelling uncertainties and lighting the way. We now have a clearer understanding of how and where to apply these innovations. It has also generated very productive publications. We are confident that, through these innovation labs, we will be able to improve the judicial system," she said.
To address the importance of innovation in the public sector and enable the participants to lead innovative initiatives, the event will be attended by professors André Tamura, co-founder and executive director of WeGov, and Renata Tonial, a specialist in public management.
In a statement, Professor André stressed the importance of the training. "We are here facilitating a learning process through this training on organizational innovation, which is a new requirement in the judiciary. There is already a resolution on the subject, and the implementation of this initiative is taking place all over Brazil. We are here with civil servers and Judges to help them understand the significance of this space within the TJTO. The laboratory already exists, called Inovassol, and we are working to establish its operation and a work agenda. This space will be as valuable for the civil servers and magistrates internally as it will obviously be for the courts and for the services provided by the justice system," he explained.
The event will continue until tomorrow, Thursday (September 21st), and it will use the "CRIE" methodology - Conceptualize, Reflect, Implement and Experiment, based on active methodologies that encourage collaboration and collective consensus building. This learning approach, known as "Learning by Doing", emphasizes the central role of action in learning, encouraging continuous development and empowering people for transformation.
