Description

Description (EN):

Confronted with a crisis of political confidence among their citizens, several European States are looking to e-government. This concept is intended to modernise the practices of government and communication, and improve the services offered to citizens, making them more effective and accessible to all. The e-Bygov project proposes to develop concrete applications for e-government in the Atlantic Area. Thanks to the New Technologies of Information and Communication, the partners intend to improve the working practices of government services and public access to services and information. The association to this project of Latvia as an observer will improve the opportunities for future co-operation with the new member countries in the setting up of e-government solutions.

Achievements (EN):
