Tariq Saeed Allay: Steady communication between governments and people key to confronting national challenges
Tariq Saeed Allay, Director General of SGMB, said: "Governments play a primary role to come up with solutions in times of uncertainty and crises, and steady two-way communication between governments and the people is key to formulating effective responses to national challenges.
“For a decade, forward-looking recommendations and ideas put forth by IGCF have helped positively influence the transformation of government communication in tandem with changing times and public needs", added Allay. "Today, this key international event returns for its 11th iteration, with hundreds of hours of debates, discussions and activities poised to envision a more dynamic future for the sector."
