Session 3.3: Cross Border Interoperability: Focus on eGovernment     

For the past ten years the strategic goal of the EU and its Member States has been to transform their Public Administrations to become more efficient and centred on the delivery of ICT-enabled services to citizens and businesses. This ability to offer public services online - so-called 'eGovernment' – is considered as a priority in order to reduce public expenses, provide better services and widen the knowledge-based European society. However, as European integration is progressing, national eGovernment solutions are no longer sufficient and cross-border data exchange requires the integration of different national concepts and models. Therefore the cornerstone of this strategy is to help develop the framework, tools and environment for interoperability between existing systems and applications, in order to foster the development of public services that would be cross-organisational, cross-level, cross-border, transparent, integrated, secure, decentralised and available anywhere at anytime.

The aim of this panel is to create a forum for discussion on interoperability of eGovernment services in the CEI region. The speakers will present their vision and experience of developing interoperable e-government solutions and discuss the progress of the various initiatives and projects both on national and cross-border level in the CEI region.
