2016 presents an unprecedented opportunity for the world to come together and embark upon a journey to transform the world. From ending poverty to eliminating?hunger, to reaching social and economical equality, and to taking climate actions; sustainable development cannot be realized without the concrete efforts from public institutions with effective public service delivery.?

Every year on 23 June, a date designated by the General Assembly, the United Nations Public Service Day is celebrated around the world. It highlights the value and virtue of public service to communities and development, as well as recognizes the work of public servants and encourages young people to pursue careers in the public sector.

In order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals “governments everywhere will need to adopt innovative and integrated approaches to promote policy change, institutional coordination, participatory decision-making, and effective, responsive, inclusive and accountable service delivery,” said Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon when 缅北禁地Public Service Day was celebrated in 2015.

The 2030 Agenda for sustainable development calls for a society that leaves no one behind. Public servants around the world are undertaking important work to ensure that this vision becomes a?reality.

To commemorate the 缅北禁地Public Service Day this year, a special event will be held at 缅北禁地Headquarters in New York on 23 June on the theme of “Leaving No One Behind through Innovative Public Service Delivery”.
