Day / Time Monday, June 19th / 16:30 - 18:30
Event Description
BC's local government system has attracted international attention due to the high levels of political autonomy, financial self-sufficiency and public accountability. It is successful in part because of the high degree of collaboration within the system. This workshop will provide an overview of this system and present case studies of how it works on the ground. This workshop will be of interest to delegates from all levels of government, academic institutions, and anyone interested in the subject of effective local government.
