Cities of Excellence in the Public Sector: The Innovation Front with their New Practices and Formulas in Bilbao

THE 4th to the 5th of June will be held in the City of Bilbao the Conference on “Cities of Excellence in the Public Sector: The Innovation Front with their New Practices and Formulas”.

Bilbao City Council and the European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) have joined forces to organise the event to present, share, award and inspire the best practices from the local level gathered by the European Public Service Awards (EPSA).

In this context, the conference will aim to emphasis and share local administrative achievements and best practices –’;excellences’ – in the various forms and on several sectorial policy areas. Therefore, the seminar will boost the building of capacities and synergies within the administrations attending the event and ultimately create a step further towards a common European administrative space.

The conference is addressed to local governments, but also to other public actors aiming to attain ‘;public excellence’ with their several approaches and initiatives when reforming and modernising their organisations. Their success in this assignment is critical for the much needed all-inclusive growth, competitiveness and a ‘;smart’ future leading to a high standard of living for its citizens.

The organization of the seminar is aligned with the new strategy of UCLG of boosting and promoting the knowledge-transfer between cities.

The deadline for registration is on May 23rd and it has no cost.
