Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Indian Journal of Public Administration Description: 69(3), Sep, 2023: p.597-608.Subject(s): Stakeholders participation/engagement, NEP 2020, SARTHAQ, National curriculum framework, Public surveys In: Indian Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: The transition from government to governance demands that numerous stakeholders participate in the policymaking and call for a strategy that could effectively help the process. Stakeholders’ engagement is extensively used in all types of public organisations, giving different stakeholders the chance to have a say in how decisions are made. The public policy process has also accepted and embraced this principle as a method, both formal and informal, for policy formation, monitoring and evaluation, owing to the interconnected interests of the two domains and the stakeholders’ expanding involvement in the process. This has enabled better alignment of public policy with the needs and aspirations of society. Stakeholders’ participation has also become an important phenomenon in recent years in India. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the conceptualisation of Students’ and Teachers’ Holistic Advancement through Quality Education (SARTHAQ) and the National Curriculum Framework are the results of massive stakeholders’ participation and a bottom-up approach. Involving stakeholders in the formulation of educational policies increases the quality of the educational system. This kind of wide and intensive consultation process and development of policies through a bottom-up approach ensures that diverse views are taken into consideration and citizens are significant contributors in the entire process. This essentially shows that collaboration and responsibility-sharing among stakeholders are key to achieving educational goals. – Reproduced
