The European Group for Public Administration (EGPA) is the regional group of the International Institute of Administrative Sciences (IIAS). EGPA provides a major contribution to IIAS ‘mission: to develop public administration and public service at European and global level. The EGPA aims to be the European platform for public administration by bringing together academics and practitioners.
EGPA contributes to the development of science and research (‘PA as Science’) in public administration through its 22 Permanent Study Groups and its specialized seminars on relevant contemporary themes. GEAP also contributes to the development of the profession (‘art and craft’) by providing a unique platform for exchanging best practices that support the work of public administrations and practitioners.

IDHEAP, the Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration, was founded in 1981. It is an institute of the University of Lausanne whose objective is to develop and transmit theoretical and practical knowledge about public or state action and the conduct of the institutions charged with carrying it out.
IDHEAP’s teaching in the field of public administration and governance is based on a multidisciplinary approach combining human and social sciences such as law, economics, management and political science. On 1 January 2014, IDHEAP became an integral part of the University of Lausanne’s Faculty of Law, Criminal Sciences and Public Administration.
