Launch of the Diploma in Governance and Public Innovation
CAF -development bank of Latin America- invites you to the launch of the new Diploma in Governance and Public Innovation, designed and taught in 19 countries, with 17 universities in the region.
A good public manager must help strengthen trust between the State and the citizens, so they must have the knowledge and understanding of social needs, as well as the tools and experience to address public problems innovatively.
Based on this premise, this event seeks to discuss what would be those skills that the leaders of our region need to formulate and implement better public policies and contribute to improving the quality of life in our countries.
- What are the skills required to work in the State and propose differentiating approaches when proposing solutions to public problems
- How to bring innovation to the State so that it is closer to the people, more agile, and transparent?
- Is it only those who work in the Public Administration, whether at the national or subnational level, who are responsible for promoting the changes and modernization of the State to face the current and future challenges of our region?
All these questions will be answered in this webinar with these main objectives: to sensitize public employees and officials about the importance of updating their knowledge in matters of governance, state management, and public innovation; present the state of governance and public innovation in the region and its importance to meet the needs of citizens and improve the state/citizen relationship; reinforce the vocation of service of those who perform functions in the state, or in institutions linked to improving the quality of life of communities.
Time:
- 3:00 pm Colombia/Perú/Ecuador/Panamá
- 4:00 pm Venezuela/Bolivia
- 5:00 pm Argentina/Uruguay/Paraguay/Brasil
The event will be broadcast on this same site.
