The International Centre for Parliamentary Studies exists to promote effective policy making and good governance through better interaction between Parliaments, governments and other stakeholders in society. The Centre’s primary focus is the empowerment of human capital through capacity building. To this effect, the Centre organises a range of training programmes, conferences and policy discussions to address current public policy issues on the international stage, in the European Union and the UK. These provide a forum for policy discussion, debate, networking and sharing of best practices. ICPS publishes The Government Gazette, a quarterly magazine that brings a unique and rounded perspective to the major issues of the day affecting good governance. We also offer international consultancy services across a range of areas, including electoral affairs, regulation, governance, public sector reform, health and security.
