I. General objectives
The purpose of the course is to highlight the importance of collaborative public leadership (LPC) styles as determinants for the construction of more inclusive territories, incorporating LPC elements in planning processes and territorial public policies.
II. Specific objectives
- – Discuss the context of multiple global crises (economic, social, environmental, health, and political), their territorial impacts, and the challenges posed to public action.
- – Know the importance of collaboration in a world of shared power and complex public problems.
- – Develop a conceptual framework on collaborative public leadership and citizenship as the foundation of the New Public Service paradigm.

COURSE DURATION
The course lasts for five weeks, with an estimated workload of 10 hours per week plus 10 hours for the completion of the final project. It is an asynchronous course so the activities can be distributed at the discretion of each participant. However, there will be one synchronous session and one workshop each week, which will be mandatory.
The course design is configured with a set of pedagogical resources and teaching activities that each participant must carry out mainly in a self-instructional mode.
COURSE METHODOLOGY
The Course will be developed with a dynamic that will combine empirical evidence, theoretical and conceptual elements, together with the development of applied exercises. Three axes structure the Course:
– The first refers to the context of multiple global crises that the region is experiencing and the challenges for territorial public policies.
– The second focuses on the role of public participation and leadership required to promote collaborative actions for the development of inclusive territories, as the foundation of a New Public Service.
– The third focuses on applied exercises of collaborative public leadership to cases of complex public problems.
