    Transfer and adaptation of innovations in public administration through pilot projects and Study Tours  in 4 countries
    We are in the process of initiating the phase of pilot projects which implies assisting and facilitating the transfer of innovations for 4 to 6 countries in the region who have expressed interest in adapting a concrete innovation. The members of the national teams of replicators are currently working together to review the documentation prepared by UNDESA to facilitate this process (especially the guide and documentation about best practices from around the world).
