Training civil services on the 2030 Agenda: Skills development for working towards the common good

Abstract

This book is a relevant document on how to strengthen the public governance practices that are pre-requisites for effective SDG implementation, through sharing country experiences and good practices in international networks. That is why we believe the strengthening of global networks around this theme is significantly important to the national bureaucracies to keep promoting the importance of the (implementation) Agenda 2030 in different political contexts. This volume is organized in three sections. In the first part of this book, we look at the 2030 Agenda and its link to civil services more generically. The second part is dedicated to specific country cases in order to look for good practice in a diverse range of contexts. The third part is looking at cornerstones for training, discussing elements and techniques of adult training generically and as advice to those who conceptualize training programmes as well as presenting an example for a multi-stakeholder setting in Brazil.
