We offer you a glimpse into the articles lined up for the 67th volume of the PJPA.

The Early View section features full-text, peer-reviewed, laid-out articles as soon as they are accepted for publication, before the release of the compiled print issue. Articles are posted following acceptance of the manuscripts, before proofreading and pagination are finalized. Each Early View article carries an online publication date and a DOI for citations.

The topics discussed in this double issue of the Journal do not fall under a single thematic category. What is remarkable to note in this collection is that all articles are written by scholars who are or have been part of the National College of Public Administration and Governance (NCPAG) as students, faculty members, and researcher and extension staff. This is one of the rare occasions that all academic sectors of the College are represented in a volume of the Journal.

This year’s second issue features four articles (two original articles and two reflections) and a book review. This set highlights the importance of institutions and organizations in the areas of service provision and decision making. Three of the articles investigated selected services in the government’s portfolio against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic.
