MPA in Governance and Public Policy

 

Governance refers to the methods for directing, controlling, and holding organizations accountable. It encompasses an organization's exercise of authority, responsibility, leadership, direction, and control. Governance is crucial because it allows for the application of strong governance ideas and practices across the entire organization. Public policy is an important component of governing and politics because it helps to shape a society's standards and ideals. It's a crucial and effective approach to get your opinion heard because public policy is developed as a collaborative effort by governments, institutions, and even average citizens.
