Public Governance Monitor of Sweden
This OECD Public Governance Monitor (PGM) provides a concise analysis of Sweden’s public governance system, instruments and capabilities, and helps identify areas of opportunities for public governance reforms. The report provides an overview of public administration in Sweden looking at public governance mechanisms around six key themes: public sector effectiveness, spending, citizen participation, the governance of climate change and other cross-cutting priorities, digital transformation, and public integrity. The report suggests several priorities for reforms to improve public sector effectiveness, increase the impact of participatory mechanisms, reinforce the governance of cross-cutting topics, strengthen the steering of digital government policy and take a more holistic approach to public sector integrity, in particular by revising the national anti-corruption plan.
Illustrative Priorities for Reform for Sweden’s Public Administration
Based on the analysis provided by the overview chapter, this chapter identifies opportunities for reform in key areas of public governance in Sweden. It focuses on performance management tools to support increased effectiveness of the public sector, discusses how to enhance the impact of public participation mechanisms and explores ways to improve the governance of crosscutting issues, including climate change and the digital transformation of the government. It also aims to support Sweden's efforts to take a more holistic approach to public sector integrity. These potential priorities are also illustrated by experiences from OECD member countries that could inform future reform initiatives in Sweden.
