The winners of the Regional Best Practices Award receive recognition in Rio
The Awards Ceremony for the I Regional Best Practices Award, launched by ORU Fogar with the collaboration of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) took place just before the closing of the VII World Summit of Regional Governments. The aim of the initiative was to promote, encourage and disseminate the public administrations processes, the implementation of which can help improve the citizen services.
More than fifty intermediate governments submitted their applications, and a team of renowned professionals from the academic, cultural and business worlds was responsible for selecting the best cases of policies successfully implemented.
The five winning best practices were the following:
- “Cogeneration of public value: Towards a more participative, open and transparent Euskadi”, submitted by the Basque Government (Spain).
- “Training network of Rural Women, Colonia”, submitted by the Government of Colonia (Uruguay).
- “Women advancing towards well-being”, submitted by the Government of the State of Jalisco (Mexico).
- “Rio without extreme poverty plan”, submitted by the Government of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil).
- “Routine monitoring of Development, an inclusive practice of the Basque School”, submitted by the Basque Government (Spain).
The representatives of the winning governments had the chance to present their best practices to the audience. They will also be able to publish them in the bank of best practices that ORU Fogar will create and disseminate together with the UNDP, for their international recognition and to enable their replicability.
