Description
e-Governance is broadly recognized as central to the many transformation priorities being pursued by nations around the world, including administrative reform, citizen engagement, and transparency, to name a few. As investments are made toward these priorities, government executives and other key stakeholders are seeking information about the impact of those investments on progress toward e-Governance, and ultimately the impact of new e-Governance capability on transformation priorities. Building capability for e-Governance requires policy, management, and technology changes. Assessing the progress of countries toward making these changes and creating e-Governance capability is complex and problematic. This panel will explore several key questions related to assessing the progress of governments toward creating e-Governance capability including the imperative for doing, the perceived benefits of assessments as well as current e-Governance assessment models, instruments, and measures.
