Summary/Abstract: The international conference on "Ethics and Innovation in Public Administration" held on January 25-26, 2024, at ISM-IAE, Université Paris-Saclay, focused on the intersection of ethics and innovation within public administration. The event, part of the Jean Monnet Chair project, gathered 48 contributors from 12 countries. Discussions highlighted the challenges and opportunities of integrating innovative practices in public administration, traditionally seen as bureaucratic and less customer-oriented. The conference emphasized the need for public organizations to adopt approaches from the private sector, such as New Public Management, to enhance service quality and user satisfaction. It also addressed the ethical dilemmas posed by digital innovations and the importance of maintaining institutional integrity. The contributions will be compiled into a book to be published by Springer in September 2024. This initiative aims to foster a theoretical and practical understanding of ethical innovation in public administration, benefiting researchers, public managers, civil servants, and citizens.
