The Punjab Government, along with the Indian Institute of Administration, will organise a five-day training programme for the civil servants of Central and the state government on “Social Conflicts Analysis and Resolution Approaches”.
The training programme, to be started on February 1, 2016, at Indian Institute of Public Administration, New Delhi, is aimed at improving the day-to-day functioning.
Official spokesperson said that all the State Government departments have been directed to send the duly filled nomination forms by January 8, 2016.
He said that it has been often observed that civil servants while taking policy decisions and further course of implementing these
decisions are confronted with situations where for various reasons the actions suffer a conflict. Inaction may also have similar or worst effect and may impede the process of social justice, he added.
Spokesperson said that this multi-dimensional analysis of conflict situations and resolution strategies would create bridges and facilitate appropriate decision making and implementation efforts.
The workshop is aimed at enabling the participants to evolve a comprehensive understanding of social conflicts and approaches to conflict resolution with social justice, he said.
The spokesperson added that experience sharing and analysis of actual conflict situations and resolution strategies by the participants would be encouraged.
He said those with some exposure to conflict situations or experience of having resolved it successfully would also present brief cases studies, raising points for further discussion by the group.
