A two-week Capacity Building Programme (CBP) for the 60th batch of civil servants from Bangladesh has commenced at the National Centre for Good Governance (NCGG) campus in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand.

After the successful completion of the first phase of training, NCGG had signed an MoU with the Government of Bangladesh to enhance the skills and capabilities of an additional 1,800 civil servants by 2025. As part of the agreement, in the last two years, NCGG has already imparted training to 517 officers from Bangladesh, the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension said on Monday (May 22, 2023).

In partnership with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), NCGG has imparted training to civil servants of 15 countries – Bangladesh, Kenya, Tanzania, Tunisia, Seychelles, Gambia, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Laos, Vietnam, Nepal Bhutan, Myanmar and Cambodia.

This specific capacity building programme has been developed in collaboration with the Government of Bangladesh and the Indian High Commission, Dhaka. The primary objective of this programme is to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and innovations that have been implemented in India to enhance governance and public service delivery, NCGG Director General Bharat Lal said at the inaugural session.

NCGG’s programme reinforces the principle of citizen-centric governance among civil servants. It aims to foster the exchange of information, knowledge, and innovative ideas while promoting the adoption of best practices and digital governance. “By enhancing the sensitivity and responsiveness of civil servants, the programme seeks to bring about greater efficiency and effectiveness in public administration,” the ministry said.

In the 60th capacity building programme, NCGG is sharing various initiatives taken in the country including the changing paradigm of governance, digital governance, and public services delivery in addition to best practices from various development schemes.

“Recognizing the increasing demand, NCGG is proactively expanding its capacity to accommodate a greater number of civil servants from an expanding list of countries. This expansion is aimed at meeting the rising demand and ensuring that more nations can benefit from the expertise and resources offered by the NCGG,” the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension said.
