Event Overview

Driving Citizen-Centric Service Delivery in Local Government

Rapid change precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic has forced municipalities to view the needs of citizen and community through an entirely different lens. In the wake of post-pandemic disruption, new opportunities for local governments to drive innovation have emerged. By building on technologies and operational processes forged over the course of the past 2 years, municipalities are in a better position than ever before to modernize service delivery and respond to shifting citizen demands.

Embracing new technologies and ways of collaborating is key to increasing citizen engagement and enhancing service delivery. Digitally enabled, data-driven and citizen-focused are at the heart of the post-pandemic transformational journey. Ultimately, new technologies and ways of working have armed municipalities with the tools they need to put citizens at the centre of everything that every modern local government should strive towards.

Public Sector Network’s Driving Citizen-Centric Service Delivery in Local Government will showcase the latest digital tools and strategies being embraced by municipal governments to modernize service delivery. Join us for the final installment of our Virtual National Insights in Local Government to be part of the conversation!
