Improved processes to optimize coordination between municipalities
Deputies, local councilors and heads of urban planning, transportation and environment in Argentina received practical tools to bring together values and specific objectives in the tasks of their teams in order to build a shared management model.
The "3Q for the Modernization of Government and Public Management for Senior Officials" workshops held in Salta, Argentina, provided training for thirty senior officials from eight municipalities in the Valle de Lerma Metropolitan Area, with the aim of establishing means of collaboration and opportunities for improvement in implementation of regional projects.
Organized by CAF - Development Bank of Latin America -, the Secretary of Metropolitan Management of the Salta provincial government, and the Provincial University of Public Administration (UPAP), these workshops are part of CAF's public training initiatives and part of the Training Program for Senior Management in Latin America that targets public leaders and qualified staff in executive positions.
Matías Assenat, Secretary of Metropolitan Management for the Salta province, said that "without a team, you can't possibly achieve major objectives, and you are all part of a great team with a very clear objective: making the lives of people in our region a little better every day."
For his part, Emil Rodríguez, Institutional Development Executive at CAF, said that "metropolitan plans have a different logic than urban planning. On this scale, governance becomes the most effective institutional factor in aligning all short, medium and long-term objectives and visions."
