Civil Service World Collaboration Conference is a one-day event brining together leaders from government, public sector, academia and industry to enhance cross-sector collaboration. Participants will explore successful case studies, engage in practical workshops, and develop actionable ideas for improved policy outcomes.

Providing authoritative, high-quality journalism to the civil service and national politicians, our print title is the only independent professional publication available to every senior civil servant in the UK.

The brand’s success is based both on our unique access to top Whitehall officials, and the trust we’ve built up across government. For more than a decade, we’ve worked to keep civil servants informed about what’s happening across government: the people, agendas, policies and reforms that – for good or ill – affect your working life. Both magazine and website are produced by Total Politics, the specialist political publishing house.

CSW online offers a free daily bulletin of the latest independent civil service news, opinion and analysis straight to your inbox, and breaking news alerts for those can’t-miss stories. Sign up now and stay up-to-date with the issues that matter to you. 

Civil Service World Collaboration Conference will take place on Tuesday 28th January 2025,  at the Congress Center, 28 Great Russell St, London WC1B 3LS.

Registration will open at 08:45 with the first session taking place at 09:20 and the final session ending at 16:10 with a networking reception taking place until 17:00 

The CSW Collaboration Conference is tailored for senior leaders across central and local government, as well as the wider public sector. Given the high-level discussions, debates, and workshop format, the event is specifically suited for professionals at the Manager level and above, including Manger, Head, Grade 7, Deputy Director, Director, Director General, and Permanent Secretary roles. Attendees who do not meet this criteria will be placed on a waiting list and notified accordingly.
