Public Sector

Policy Writer: Naya Yug |

Citizens and businesses demand faster and more personalized services, and the policies must be developed and implemented more quickly than before. Political and economical conditions are affecting center and state
governments and their decisions in reforming public sector. We need to build efficient and accountable public sector institutions - rather than simply providing discrete policy advice. Institutional reform in the public sector is a cross-cutting issue that touches virtually all segments of economic growth. We have to overcome the challenges and build a better future for our citizens.
