We are pleased to welcome you to the Swedish Presidency of the Council of the European Union. It is the third time we assume this responsibility.
First, we would like to thank our Czech colleagues. We appreciate the hard work you have done, to the benefit of EUPAN and its members. We are also grateful for the good cooperation we have had within the secretariat, which we hope to build on during our presidency.
In the spring of 2023, we will focus on four main themes:
We will address the themes in several ways, including a dedicated study, invited speakers and parallel workshops. As the strength of EUPAN lies in its role to facilitate exchange of practices, experiences and views in areas of common interest, we invite you to consider if there are experiences you would be willing to share on one or several of the themes. It is our strong conviction that the EUPAN is at its best when there are interactive discussions. We will therefore strive to organize meetings where we encourage sharing of experiences.
The Swedish presidency of EUPAN is jointly organized by the Swedish Agency for Public Management and the Swedish Agency for Government Employers. Two e-mail addresses will thus be used during the presidency: eupan@arbetsgivarverket.se and eupan@statskontoret.se.
Do not hesitate to contact any of us for additional information or queries.
We look forward to welcoming you to Sweden and to continue our fruitful cooperation in EUPAN.

On 1 July 2022 the Czech Republic takes over its historically second Presidency of the Council of the European Union. It is our great pleasure and privilege to take on this role and guide work of the EUPAN network for the following six months.
The Czech Presidency wish to build on achievements of previous presidencies and invite you for a discussion and sharing of ideas on the following priority themes of Czech Presidency: 1) transparent and professional civil service (relation of top public managers to political leadership), 2) development of ethical culture and values in civil service, 3) support of innovation using Big Data. We would also like to carry out follow up activities on the international exchange programme for civil servants. Our work will be guided by two important documents adopted during the French presidency, namely the EUPAN Strategy Paper for a period July 2022 – June 2025 and the Strasbourg Declaration on the Common values and challenges of European Public Administrations approved by the ministerial conference in Strasbourg in March 2022.
The Czech Presidency is looking forward to welcoming you in Prague in Autumn and to continue our fruitful cooperation in the EUPAN network.

From July 1 to December 31 2021, Slovenia is holding the Presidency of the Council of the European Union for the second time.
During our Presidency, we will be addressing the impacts and consequences of demographic changes. The underlying topic of our EUPAN activities in the area of public administration human resources will be the ageing workforce and talent management
We will address approaches for a gradual transition of older workers from employment to retirement while ensuring a successful transfer of knowledge to younger generations. Our focus will also be on introducing solutions on how to attract potential employees and ways to identify, retain and manage talents. For this purpose, we are conducting a study that will present trends, promising practices and recommendations for effective ageing and talent management in the public administrations across EUPAN member states.

1 January 2021 marks the start of the fourth Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
Portugal intends to exercise a Presidency of positive and flexible action, capable of building bridges and achieving concrete results in the economic recovery and in the exit from the crisis. With the motto Time to act: for a fair, green and digital recovery, Portugal takes over this Presidency with three major priorities for the EU:
The EUPAN Portuguese Presidency will address three topics: innovation in digital services delivery; ethical leadership related to trust during the Covid-19 pandemic and employees’ motivation. The impact of the pandemic crisis on our public administrations has made the Covid-19 focus unavoidable also leading the Portuguese Presidency to include this approach in its working programme.
With regard to the CAF area its assessment implementation in the EU will be the main topic.
Under the Portuguese Presidency a EUPAN ministerial conference will be held in Lisbon, at Centro Cultural de Belém, in June.
