Announcing E-Government for All:
A Virtual Conference
November 3-14, 2003

E-Government for All will bring together leaders in government, the private sector, community activists, academia and civil society to discuss the relationship between e-government initiatives and the need for policy strategies to bridge the digital divide. While e-government presents us with powerful opportunities for making government more accessible and efficient, there are still millions of people lacking both Internet access and the skills to use it effectively. The conference, therefore, will explore what can be done to ensure that e-government initiatives lessen the digital divide rather than widen it.

E-Government for All is free and open to the public.

Goals of the conference:

  • Raise awareness and spark engagement among policymakers of the importance of tackling the digital divide while pursuing e-government activities
  • Convene and evaluate a first-ever virtual gathering of experts and practitioners to develop strategies to expand the relevance and accessibility of e-government in underserved communities
  • Develop a set of guiding principles that can be used as a "call to action" for better e-government policies in the context of bridging the digital divide and the need to ensure access to government information and services for all
  • Publish a post-conference report to summarizing the activities the conference and the collective wisdom of participants
