Journal Title: Account and Financial Management Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 12
Abstract
Public policy management was the subject of this paper in as much as dealing with its effectiveness in the realization of sustainable development within the Iraqi Ministry of Health. Using a survey research approach, a standardized questionnaire was distributed to 222 Ministry employees in Baghdad over a period of January 2023 to November 2024 and it covered the policy formulation, policy implementation as well as policy evaluation. Both the descriptive and inferential statistics measures were used on the data collected and correlation and regression analysis using SPSS27 was done. Public policy management best practices were found to have a positive significant relationship (R =.859, p <.001) with sustainable development attainments. The respondents held perceptions of strength with regards to resource management and engaging key stakeholders; however, saw a weakness in capacity development. The study concludes by calling for capacity building interventions that target sustainable development and building on Cambodia’s existing competences on resource mobilisation and stakeholder management, integrating effective monitoring and evaluation systems, increasing accountability, and partnerships. These strategies can augment the capability of the Ministry to attain sustainable development objectives for the overall superior, sound, and sustainable direction of Iraq.
