CALL FOR PAPERS

1. Conference Main Theme and Sub-Themes
The main theme of this conference is: New Challenges for Public Administration and Governance in Asia: Harnessing Opportunities within the Context of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Its sub-themes include: (1) the sustainable future of public administration and public governance in Asia; (2) challenges of local governance for meeting SDGs; (3) excellence in public management and challenges of performance and delivery; (4) public administration in the digital age (digital competencies, e-governance and ICT human capacity development, open digital dividend, and the like); (5) global competitiveness and public administration, and implications for education and science; (6) multi-stakeholder cooperation for inclusive and innovative public services; and (7) building partnership for civil service excellence focusing on SDGs 16 and 17 (ACSH Session). Well-constructed and successful public administration and governance systems are the platform for the development and prosperity of any country. Most Asian countries are therefore searching for optimal solutions to modernize public administration in order to address new challenges. The 2017 AAPA Conference will look for cutting-edge solutions through the prism of internationally agreed SDGs. Accordingly, prospective participants are invited to submit papers with up-to-date research and approaches for connecting public administration and governance reform within the context of SDGs. The working language of the conference is English.
