OECD Public Governance Reviews examine governance and public management issues from a comprehensive

perspective, helping countries to identify how reforms can better reinforce each other in support of overall

government objectives. They also examine reform strategies that have worked in other countries and provide

advice as to which reforms can be appropriately adapted to a given country.

delivery to citizens and to meet new challenges on the horizon.
