Hardback. Condition: New. This timely and thought-provoking book argues that public sector innovation ameliorates many societal challenges in Southern Africa, demonstrating how innovative practices are already improving service delivery and addressing governance gaps.Bringing together a diverse range of scholars, this book's chapters provide insights into the challenges and opportunities shaping innovation in the public sector.
