African Association for Public Administration and Management(AAPAM)

Join Us at the 43nd Round Table Conference

Historical Background

Founded over forty years ago, AAPAM has led efforts to strengthen the administrative and management capacities of African public administration systems. These efforts date back to 1962, when a group of Permanent Secretaries in charge of Public Services from several African countries, met to discuss two main problems, among others, facing the African Public Services then.

In 1971, this network of Heads of Civil Service decided to formalize their assembly giving birth to African Association for Public Administration and Management (AAPAM). The Association was inaugurated by the President of Sierra Leone, the late Dr. Siaka Stevens and had, as its first President, Kenya Cabinet Minister the late Dr. Robert Ouko.
