ILG Alumni Network
Since its inception in 2014, the Innovation and Leadership in Government Program (ILG) has equipped 115 public managers from 17 Latin American countries with analytical frameworks and tools to generate and implement innovative public policies in their respective countries.
ILG brings together public managers from diverse countries and government sectors that enrich the learning process by sharing perspectives and experiences, and it provides a unique networking platform to foster ties beyond the duration of the program.
