New York — In a powerful conclusion to the 25th session of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Public Administration, Chair Rolf Alter delivered an influential message urging nations and stakeholders to actively contribute to the global community for the advancement of good governance.
Addressing delegates, policymakers, and international experts, Alter emphasized that governance is not merely a national concern but a shared global responsibility. “We must contribute to the world community for good governance,” he stated, highlighting the urgency of collective action in an increasingly interconnected world.
The session, held at the United Nations headquarters in New York, focused on rebuilding trust in public institutions, promoting transparency, and accelerating progress toward sustainable development goals (SDGs). Alter’s closing remarks underscored the importance of inclusive policies, accountability, and innovation in governance systems.
He further noted that effective governance frameworks are essential for addressing global challenges, including economic inequality, climate change, and social justice. By fostering cooperation among nations, institutions can be strengthened to deliver more equitable and sustainable outcomes.
Participants at the session echoed the Chair’s call, recognizing that multilateral collaboration remains key to achieving long-term development and stability. The discussions throughout the CEPA session reflected a shared commitment to institutional reform and citizen-centered governance.
As the session concluded, Alter’s message resonated as both a call to action and a reminder: the future of governance depends on unified efforts across borders to build trust, ensure accountability, and serve the global community effectively.
