The American Bar Association Section of International Law ILRC Seeking Students & Alumni for Project Related to Public Administration

The American Bar Association Section of International Law ABA-UNDP International Legal Resource Center (ILRC) is seeking students and alumni to provide assistance on a project for UNDP/Uzbekistan related to public administration. During the last 10 years, the Government of Uzbekistan, aiming further improvements in social and economic situation reached considerable progress in developing ICT and reforming public administration system. One of such key achievements in these spheres was establishment of One-Stop-Shop (OSS) in Tashkent. The OSS was established in order to test and later, to develop unique conceptual approach of integrating the system, which allows provision of public services based on “one window” concept, taking into account local peculiarities and modern ICT solutions.

UNDP/Uzbekistan is interested in an analysis of international experience in terms of different models ofOSS, financial and organizational sustainability of OSS, its legal status, the overall framework reform to introduce such new institution into public administration system etc.

If you are interested, please send a resume and short paragraph describing your relevant experience (e.g. public administration experience you have that would help you be qualified to write on these topics) to Ms. Jacqueline Gichinga, International Program Associate, American Bar Association, Section of International Law ABA-UNDP International Legal Resource Center (ILRC) via email by Tuesday, October 16, 2012.
