On Oct. 21, the United Nations announced its selection of Park University's International Center for Civic Engagement as an "Online International Center" of the U.N. Online Network of Public Administration and Finance.

Park University is the first university-affiliated center invited to the network.

Park's ICCE will participate in a global network of institutes and associations that shares knowledge, experiences and best practices in sound public policies, effective public administration and efficient civil services.

ICCE Director Erik Bergrud has been an active participant in the Network since shortly after its establishment in 2001 and has edited UNPAN's quarterly newsletter since November 2003.

Other UNPAN partners include the International Institute of Administrative Sciences, the Latin American Centre for Development Administration, the Arab Administrative Development Organization, and the African Institute for Economic Development and Planning.
