Frank Zerunyan, a USC Price School of Public Policy senior fellow,
traveled to the Kingdom of Bahrain in June to take part in a United
Nations (U.N.) forum and expand USC's global footprint by building
human capacity in public service.
The theme of the annual United Nations Public Service Forum Day
and Awards Ceremony was "Transformative eGovernment and Innovation:
Creating a Better Future for All." More than 700 participants attended,
including high-level U.N. officials, representatives of Bahrain, senior
government leaders, mayors, academics, civil society representatives,
business executives and representatives from international and
regional organizations.
Zerunyan, who also serves as director of executive education (EXED)
at USC Price and is a sitting mayor and council member in the city
of Rolling Hills Estates, Calif., chaired a plenary session on the
challenges and opportunities in transferring innovative practices
to public sectors of least-developed countries. He also gave two
lectures over two days on the potential of collaborative governance
and the role of facilitative leadership for improved service delivery.
"Through our collaboration with the United Nations, we have been
able to deliver our capacity building mission throughout the world,"
Zerunyan said. "As a public servant, it is an honor to share our
humble experience here in the United States with public servants
around the world."
USC was the only university from the western United States to take
part in the forum. There were 18 countries, including eight state
ministers, represented at the lecture given by Zerunyan.
