Bahrain to host MENAPAR on April 23

Manama, April 5 (BNA)-- Bahrain is set to host the Middle East and North Africa Conference for Public Administration Research ((MENAPAR) on April 23 and 24 with the participation of an elite of specialists in public administration from Bahrain and abroad. MENAPAR aims to establish itself as a forum for academic research and professional practice regarding issues pertaining to public administration, general policies and good governance in the Arab region. It also seeks to provide a research resources base for all public administration practitioners to depend on them in mapping out policies and taking decisions. MENAPAR is considered as one of the achievements of the 29th International Congress on Public Administration held by Bahrain Institute for Public Administration (BIPA) last June. The initiative resulted from partnership between BIPA and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). A O Q
