New Public Administration

New Public Administration emerged in the late 20th century as a response to changing societal needs and challenges. It emphasizes the importance of social equity, citizen participation, and responsiveness within government. Unlike traditional approaches, which often focused solely on efficiency and bureaucracy, New Public Administration advocates for a more human-centered approach, ensuring that public policies and services are designed to meet the diverse needs of citizens. It encourages collaboration between government agencies and communities and seeks to make public administration more adaptable and accountable to the people it serves.
