It is within the framework of the Celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the United Public Service Day (2003-2023), the Strategic Partnership between UCLG Africa and PSI-Africa Region, and of this Pilot Program, that the two Parties have decided to join forces to celebrate the United Nations Public Service Day, which is held on June 23rd each year, proclaimed in 2003 by the United Nations General Assembly in its Resolution A/RES/57/277. It's a day that provides an opportunity to highlight the role of public administration in development and in communities, and above all to honor and celebrate civil servants (executives, managers, officers, agents, employees) in the Public Service.

On this occasion, UCLG Africa and Public Services International (PSI) are honoured to invite their respective Members and Partners to a Virtual Conference which will focus on:

“Celebrating and Honoring Workers in the Waste Management Sector: Peer Learning between Mayors and Workers' Representatives”
