INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR 2023
Modernization and Innovation in Public Management

The main purpose of this seminar, organized by the International Network for Modernization and Innovation in Public Management, is to promote the understanding and dissemination of concepts, approaches, tools and perspectives related to innovation in the field of public management and policies, through a comparative approach. 

This approach focuses on two key areas: Open Government and Innovation in Public Management.

Within this initiative, emerging sub-themes that are rapidly transforming the dynamics between citizens and government entities will also be explored. In regards to Open Government, competencies and mechanisms of the control and judicial institutions will be analyzed in their role of safeguarding integrity and promoting debate in the management of Regional Governments, especially in terms of autonomy versus probity.

In the broader context of innovation in public management, crucial issues such as the regulation of artificial intelligence and the use of Big Data, the evolution of Smart Cities and public-private partnerships aimed at the digitalization of government management, among other relevant topics, will be discussed.

During the seminar, renowned experts from Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Spain, Czech Republic and the People's Republic of China will share their practical experiences and address the challenges inherent in these areas. In summary, this event aims to strengthen the international network of modernization and innovation in public policy, promoted by the Universidad Tecnológica Metropolitana and the Universidad de Santiago de Chile. It also seeks to encourage reflection and the exchange of ideas among experts and decision-makers, towards exploring solutions to emerging problems in the field of public management.
