ABOUT THE COURSE

The public sector relies upon uniform public policies and guidelines as a tool to enhance efficient public administration. The process of policy formulation begins with identification of issues and the definition and formulation of suitable solutions. The most suitable policy solution is the output of rigorous planning, negotiation and robust stakeholder engagement in compliance with the Constitution. The biggest challenge after policy formulation is usually the implementation of public policy across different institutions and departments. Further, the implementation process must be closely monitored and evaluated to establish policy outcome and assess consistency with policy objectives. Effective and efficient future policymaking is dependent on a diligent examination of previous experiences and learnings.

This course offers participants an experiential and practical training on the entire public policy making process and aims to equip them with knowledge and skills to ensure policy formulation is consistent with institutional culture, mode of governance and landscape.
