Aurangabad, India hosted a two-day national dissemination workshop on local government good practice from 22-23 September. The theme of the workshop, run by the Commonwealth Local Government Forum (CLGF) in collaboration with the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation was service delivery and community engagement, with good practice and lessons from partnerships between councils in India and the UK and South Africa.

The workshop was part of the final phase of CLGF’s three year capacity building programme, the Good Practice Scheme (GPS) which is funded by DFID (UK), and seeks to improve local service delivery through the sharing of good practice and practitioner to practitioner learning. The Aurangabad workshop is the third in a series of Good Practice Scheme dissemination workshops which are being held in Ghana, Jamaica, Sierra Leone and South Africa.
