Recently, The National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) completed a study of the future of intergovernmental management and relations in the U.S.
Discuss the following concerns The Academy developed during its study:

- What are the current barriers to effective consultation and collaboration at both the enterprise and program levels within and across levels of government?
- What procedural or institutional changes might best reduce those barriers?
- How might needed institutional capacity be managed and funded?
