RFG works to modernize public service in a changing global context
RFG sponsored a session at this year's National Academy of Public Administration 2019 Fall Meeting, "Improving the Development of Public Administrators for Global Work in the 21st Century" focused on how we can develop public administrators to be ready for global work and where there is still work to be done.
RFG Supports Diversity in Public Service
On July 12th more than more than 600 registered attendees and 80 exhibitors attended the PPIA Public Service Expo. The Public Policy and International Affairs Program (PPIA) is a not-for-profit that has been supporting efforts to increase diversity in public service for 39 years. PPIA believes that our society is best served by public managers, policy makers, and community leaders who represent diverse backgrounds and perspectives.
