Hampton Roads ASPA is happy to present today at the 2024 ASPA Annual Conference, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency in Minneapolis, MN, from 12:30 to 1:45 PM.
Pew Research Center (2022) describes public trust in government as near historic lows, with two out of ten Americans declaring they trust the government to do what is right ‘just about always” (2%) or “most of the time” (19%). Lack of public trust is a harbinger of a fading democracy and a societal structure in need of repair. According to Gerardo Berthin (2022), democratic resilience is the “ability of the democratic government ecosystem to self-correct.” This self-correction requires public administrators with the tools to create equitable spaces, facilitate power sharing, promote ethical leadership, and practice responsible stewardship of natural resources.
Hampton Roads-ASPA explores the importance of prioritizing sound governance principles of ethical leadership, environmental sustainability, diversity, equity, and inclusion in promoting democratic resilience and building better communities.
