TED Conference on e-Government Electronic democracy
Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
The European Science Foundation (ESF) has established the program TOWARDS ELECTRONIC DEMOCRACY (TED) with the overall objectives of discussing and evaluating how advances of interactive decision-analytic tools might help develop e-Democracy, and developing eGovernment systems which involve their citizens more fully in the public decision making process. As part of this program, a conference on interdisciplinary methods and techniques related to the TED program is being held in Bozen-Bolzano in Spring 2005. The conference aims at addressing a large spectrum of issues that are relevant and have to be investigated for a successful transition from the traditional form of government to a new form known as e-Government.
