Friday
Within both central and local government there is an agenda to radically transform the delivery of public services through the adoption of advanced information and communications technology (ICT). Whether in central or local government, or other parts of the public service sector, this is generally referred to as e-Government. e-Government is not solely about technology ' it is about reinventing the way in which service providers and customers interact, transforming business processes, providing community leadership, enabling economic development and renewing the role of government itself in society.
The advisory group for the conference invites submissions of papers on both the theory and practice of all aspects of web enabling technology in the public sector. The conference to be held in July 2003 is seeking qualitative, experienced-based and quantitative papers as well as case studies and reports of work-in-progress from academics, government departments and members of the public service sector. Topics may include, but are not limited to, e-Government portals, e-Government transaction sites, webocracy, e-democracy, security and confidentiality, integrated systems, citizen centric information systems, web-enabled knowledge management and other ICT enabled systems in the public service sector.
