The ASPA annual conference New Orleans 2013 Governance & Sustainability: Local Concerns, Global Challenges

The capacity to responsibly sustain our global community has long term environmental, economic, social, and governance implications. The 2013 ASPA Annual Conference  addressed the myriad issues associated with the responsible management and stewardship of our diverse, yet interrelated resources. The management of these resources is a complex social challenge involving consideration of leadership, ethics, economics, planning, social equity, collaboration, and technology, amongst other issues. This conference considered whether we have reached or exceeded the limits of our democratic state, the governance implications of these challenges, and the effects of these issues in public management and public policy.

The 2013 ASPA conference, based on its cooperation with NISPAcee, hosted a panel on Transparency and sustainable governance in CEE countries. The convener, Dacian C. Dragos, has chaired the panel composed of Bogdana Neamtu (RO), Andras Patyi (HU), Patricija Suwaj (PL) and Polonca Kovac (SLO).
