International activities play a central role in the work of PGI. This is at the heart of the New Synthesis Initiative. The international work conducted by PGI helps to detect emerging issues of importance to government and to test powerful ideas in a diversity of contexts and circumstances. The ideas reflected in the New Synthesis of public administration have been tested in practice in three countries or more in order to validate their relevance and their robustness beyond their country of origin. This is a trade mark of PGI’s approach.
PGI maintains a working relationship with a large number of public organizations on several continents.
