Introduction
The Institute provides a neutral space for bringing together experts from academia, practice and the private and third sectors to problem-solve on critical governance issues.
The Institute's engagement activities include a broad range of seminars, workshops and conferences on governance themes in partnership with the Australian Public Service Commission, the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, Institute of Public Administration Australia, Minter Ellison, the Research School of Social Sciences at the ANU and Treasury. Moreover, Professor Meredith Edwards and Professor Virginia Haussegger are leading the Institute’s signature professional engagement program for 2010-11: ‘Celebrating the Contribution of Women to public sector excellence’.
Being a trusted knowledge broker on governance and government issues is a major objective of the Institute. Therefore the Institute aims to deliver a multifaceted program of seminars, workshops and events to engage our network of research and public members and partners in discussions at the nexus of research and practice.
