REGIONAL CONFERENCES

Regional Conferences is an EROPA tradition to hold region-wide conferences on certain aspects of public administration in conjunction with its General Assembly. Eighteen such conferences has been held, the first regional conference taking place in Manila in 1958 at which time the organization of EROPA was still being conceived. The Second Regional Conference was held in Manila in conjunction with the First General Assembly. In 1999, EROPA hosted a World Conference on Governance where 85 countries attended. The Regional Conferences have served as effective fora for exchange of views between practitioners and experts where they exchange experiences and information on matters dealing with public administration.
