Organized in cooperation with Caucasus University
In 1999, at the EGPA conference, Prof. Huib de Jong, dean of the University of Twente's Public Administration Faculty, initiated a discussion on establishing quality standards and accreditation for European public administration programs. The idea resonated with attendees, and with support from EGPA and NISPAcee, an association under Dutch law was formed: the European Association for Public Administration Accreditation (established December 13, 1999), with Geert Bouckaert as the first chairman.
The UN Public Administration Network (UNPAN) is a powerful internet-based network for the UN Member States for the exchange of information and experience in public administration. UNPAN has over 30 Partner institutions including NISPAcee.
Juraj Nemec, member of the UN CEPA, NISPAcee Steering Committee member and Former NISPAcee President, particiated in the meeting and represented NISPAcee at the meeting.
The online EAPAA (European Association for Public Administration Accreditation) Board meeting was held on March 18, 2024.
Gyorgy Hajnal, Corvinus University, Hungary, Chair of EAPAA (former NISPAcee President) chaired the session. NISPAcee Board members Juraj Nemec, NISPAcee Steering Committee member and Ludmila Gajdosova, NISPAcee Executive Director, participated in the meeting.
