eGovernment Handbook for Developing Countries

A Project of infoDev and The Center for Democracy & Technology

The eGovernment Handbook For Developing Countries offers guidance to government officials and others in the developing world, presenting for the first time a comprehensive index of e-government models and resources, focusing on success stories in the developing world.
This handbook presents a compilation of roadmaps for policymakers considering electronic government as a mechanism for reform:
Part I examines the three phases of e-government, defined as publish, interact and transact, and offers examples of each phase and recommendations for implementing successful e-government projects.
Part II focuses on the actual process of achieving e-government policy goals, focusing on the transformation of government through ICT. It addresses five key determinants of success, again using specific examples
Part III takes a different look at e-government, addressing seventeen challenges and opportunities that arise in developing and implementing e-government projects.
The Appendix consists of multiple indexes of exemplary sites, case studies, and published papers, categorized by the phases, processes, challenges, and opportunities of e-government.
