Introduction
While governments have successfully implemented management improvements over the past decade, many still struggle with the issue of successful policymaking and implementation.
Common problems include:
- rushing to solutions without thorough analysis
- elegantly written policy documents without adequate implementation arrangements
- lack of integration of policy-making into annual and medium-term budgeting leading to inadequate funding for new policies
- lack of imagination in the choice of policy instruments and methods of implementation
- formal evaluation processes than have no impact on policy on the ground
This course is designed to enable middle and senior-level personnel to develop policy implementation schemes that deliver results
