The Deputy Minister for the Public Service and Administration, Dr Chana Pilane-Majake, MP and the Acting Executive Director of Centre for Public Service Innovation, Ms Lydia Sebokedi, invite members of the media to the 16th Public Sector Innovation Conference on the 24th and 25th of August 2022 at 09:00 a.m. The conference will be hosted at the Avianto Hotel, Muldersdrift, Gauteng.
The CPSI is a government component within the Ministry for the Public Service and Administration, tasked with the mandate of entrenching the culture and practice of innovation in the Public Sector to improve service delivery. This is done through various programmes that unearth, recognise, and nurture the replication and mainstreaming of innovative solutions for improved public service.
This annual conference is one of the flagship ministerial events and it serves as a platform to deliver on the CPSI mandate. The purpose of the conference is to sustain and further build a community of practice and encourage learning and sharing of innovative solutions. The conference also serves as a platform that provides thought leadership in public sector innovation.
The theme of the conference this year is: Building Social Innovation Partnerships for a Capable Developmental State.
The theme identifies social innovations as one of the key solutions in solving service delivery challenges. Social Innovations in their nature are inspired by the needs of the citizens and thus solve pressing societal challenges.
The theme further echoes the call by the President for robust social partnerships with defined roles to ensure the success of this approach to solving various challenges affecting the livelihood of citizens with the ultimate aim of ensuring better lives for all.
