The aim of the conference was to re-address the issue of e-Government not only under the
perspective of technology but also as a tool for re-organising the way in which the public sector
and the citizens interact. The main question set by the conference was: the possibilities for the
enhancement of the democratic processes and the transformation of the government processes in order
to make lives easier for the citizen by renewing the role of government itself in
society.
The themes of the presentations included:
Current projects and applications of e-Government in Greece
The Organisational Changes of the public sector (as a prerequisite and result for e-government
projects).
Ideas for improving the Public Service efficiency and effectiveness
Specific examples of e-Government applications from EU
The interactions between technology and Democracy
The dangers of e-government and how to prevent them
