The European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) is proud to announce the opening of the Call for applications for its European Public Sector Award – EPSA 2019. Applications can be submitted online until 18 April 2019.

EIPA is inviting innovative and efficient performers from the public sector across Europe to present their work, to learn from and share with their peers, and to become part of an extensive European network of public sector excellence.

Under the overarching theme "New solutions to complex challenges – A public sector citizen-centric, sustainable and fit for the future”, EPSA 2019 seeks to showcase and reward those cases submitted by public administrations which have found new solutions in public service delivery and policy-making for the increasingly complex, difficult to address and often multi-dimensional challenges faced by the public sector everywhere in Europe, such as demographic change, climate change, technological transformation, security and cybersecurity as well as the maintenance of social security.

The award scheme is open to European public sector institutions from all administrative levels, as well as public sector enterprises, agencies and public-private partnerships. The lead applicant must be a public sector institution or authority - other applicants in a consortium, can for example be private companies, semi-public institutions, NGOs, universities or training institutions.
