The IIAS-Lien 2019 Conference is jointly organised by the International Institute of Administrative Sciences and the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. This is the first time two of the leading international flagship events from the International Institute of Administrative Sciences and the Nanyang Centre for Public Administration (NCPA) at the Nanyang Technological University are held together on a single platform.

This year's theme on "Effective, Accountable and Inclusive Governance" reflects the emerging consensus at United Nations level as to what the concept of good governance means in the Agenda 2030 context. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) constitute the internationally legitimate framework for development. While baseline public administration constitutes a stand-alone development end in the 16th SDG, good governance is also an essential enabler, explicitly or not, of all other SDGs. It is also vital for governments and policy makers to put in place the enabling mechanisms to make the sweeping advances of the Fourth Industrial Revolution ("4IR") towards achieving the SDGs. This conference brings together academics, practitioners and thought leaders from different parts of the world to discuss what constitute good governance in today's global context following the principles of effectiveness, accountability and inclusivity.
