We are very pleased to invite you and request that you nominate and sponsor participants from your Ministry/Agency/Organization to the Forum on Leadership, Governance and Development holding at the Nairobi Safari Club, Nairobi, Kenya, on November 27-30, 2022 where they will be expected to join other experts in sharing their experiences and best practices on how leadership and governance can truly serve, empower citizens and bring about inclusive development. The forum will be a follow up on thoughts around “evolving security and contemporary development challenges and the role of state actors” especially in developing nations, an ongoing debate at the global stage.
Good leadership and governance at all levels is critical to development and with the world experiencing a pervasive crisis of trust in public institutions, there is the urgency for public service and state actors to be more effective, participatory, accountable and show more commitment to every one of its citizens. The need to demonstrate enduring strengths in quality, motivation and strong visionary leadership to deal with chaotic events such as the impacts of development issues, current state of violent criminal activities especially in most African states and general economic crises directly attributable to leadership flaws has become a compelling necessity.
