The Centre for Public Policy and Governance was established in 2007, the year 2017 marking a decade since its inception. In the ten years of its existence, the CPPG has significant accomplishments in research, teaching, training and advocacy in the areas of governance, civil service reform, demography, urban policy, citizens engagement, youth, electoral democracy, energy, and conflict resolution and peace building, to mention a few.
Besides, teaching, training and skills development in the broad domain of Public Policy and Governance, one of the key functions of the CPPG is to produce knowledge. In that spirit CPPG promotes original, interpretive and evidence based research on academic and policy issues. It is one of the few centres in the country that is also a publisher.With the launch of PhD program in the coming year,the ThinkTank function of CPPG will grow and expand.
