About Us

The Alliance of Change Makers is a shared platform of like-minded people who are of the view that ethics is at the epicentre of public service. It is considered desirable to develop a  commonality of thinking on various issues of public governance and of strengthening our resolve of spreading the message of ethical governance.

It is a platform where we talk about embedding ethics in our work, where we celebrate the best practices introduced by our colleagues, where we share our ideas of elevating the quality of public service, where we carry out research on related issues.

We are looking for new and innovative ideas. We are looking for new projects. We are looking for new areas of further research. And we thought of the great resource we have for this purpose. That resource is YOU.
