Breaking Barriers to e-Government
Breaking Barriers to e-Government
Overcoming obstacles to improving European public services
Funded by the European Commission Led by the Oxford Internet Institute, Oxford University
The European Commission is funding a three year project to investigate the legal, organisational, technological and other barriers to expanding effective e-Government services using the Internet. The study will identify and explore key issues that can constrain e-Government growth, drawing on real-life case studies. This rich data source will be analysed to define possible initiatives at a European level to overcome such obstacles, including best practice recommendations.
The project is led by the Oxford Internet Institute (OII), a multidisciplinary department at the University of Oxford studying the Internet and society. Its project partners are:
- gov3, a leading UK-based e-Government consultancy;
- TILT, the University of Tilburg (Netherlands)
- CRID, the Research Centre for Computer and Law of the University of Namur (Belgium)
- and the University of Murcia (Spain).
