Spain is a country under the continental-European socio-administrative framework with a vertical distribution of competences typical from a centralized State which provides powers to self-governing regions and a significant role to the cities in managing the public space. Therefore, the role of the public administrations is vital for the economic and political life in the country. Despite the fact that some of the roles of the Public Administration are developed under the framework of their own competences and the Public Administration management, this reality is connected to some innovation components at different levels. In this panel, young professionals and graduate students, as well as researchers at Harvard Kennedy School will deliver a presentation on some of the most innovative projects that are currently carried out in Spain with a national and international relevance.
