Venez nous joindre à Charlottetown, Î.-P.-É pour le 69e Congrès annuel de l’IAPC !
du 20 au 23 août 2017
Des fondements solides
pour un futur durable
À l’occasion du 150e anniversaire de la confédération, le thème du Congrès est « Des fondements solides – pour un futur durable ».
Les délégués exploreront un certain nombre de sous-thèmes, y compris la durabilité, l'innovation politique et le leadership. La durabilité sera une priorité essentielle pour tous les Canadiens et leurs gouvernements dans les années à venir. Le congrès examinera les sujets de durabilité en ce qui concerne l'environnement, l'énergie, l'alimentation et les communautés. Des visites hors site feront connaître les progrès de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard dans la résolution de ces problèmes.
De plus, ce congrès offrira l'occasion de partager vos connaissances et votre expérience ainsi que de promouvoir le dialogue sur la réconciliation et les relations renouvelées avec les gouvernements et les organisations des Premières nations, des Métis et des Inuits.
Faites partie d'un programme interactif sur les thèmes visant à renforcer la fonction publique

Durabilité
Your headline
Les réalités du leadership ne cessent d’évoluer. Cela peut être aussi vaste que l'approche que l'on prend en matière de leadership ; mais cela implique également la responsabilité – et les charges éventuelles – d'être dans un rôle de leader, en particulier pour celles et ceux d'entre nous dans le secteur public. Le rôle toujours croissant du Canada sur la scène mondiale met en avant la dynamique du populisme et de la mondialisation, avec un engagement interculturel et une intégration stratégique des services prenant un nouveau sens en cette période de réconciliation. Les médias sociaux, également, créent leurs propres défis et apportent une nouvelle profondeur à la conversation sur le leadership qui n'a jamais existé auparavant. La considération du leadership en 2017 est un dialogue complexe qui sera intéressant à explorer.
Leadership
Dans un monde de complexité croissante et de changement accéléré, l’élaboration de politiques efficaces est sans doute plus vitale que jamais. Ces facteurs qui créent un besoin croissant de bonnes politiques influent également sur les processus et les pratiques pour les concevoir, ce qui engendre des défis et des possibilités pour tous les niveaux de gouvernement. Les greffiers et secrétaires de cabinet canadiens ont reconnu l'importance de l'innovation politique pour en faire un élément essentiel de leur programme commun au cours des deux dernières années, et l'IAPC appuie cet objectif en faisant de l'innovation politique l'un des trois thèmes du Congrès annuel de 2017.
Innovation politique
