The United Nations Project Office on Governance (UNPOG), part of the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Governance (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), invites interested participants to register for the 2026 edition of its Blended eLearning Courses.
The 2026 programme builds on previous editions and integrates the latest policy insights and practical lessons to strengthen institutional capacities and public sector leadership in support of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Two courses are offered:
The course Effective National to Local Public Governance for SDG Implementation focuses on improving coordination and coherence across different levels of government.
The course Government Innovation for Social Inclusion of People in Vulnerable Situations emphasizes inclusive policies, innovative approaches, and participatory governance models to better empower and integrate marginalized groups into decision-making processes.
Participants who successfully complete the course requirements, including quizzes, active participation in at least two live sessions, and the submission of an action plan, will receive a Certificate of Completion.
Participation is limited and applications will be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis. Early registration is therefore recommended.
For further information, interested participants may contact the course organizers at UNPOG.
The Registration closes on 16th February 2026.
