Fagligt indhold:	The course focuses on national and international regulation and policies for e-government, as well as trends and development across Europe in implementing new strategies for the best of use of ICT (Information and Communication technologies) in European business and administrations. Despite the initial high take-up of e-services and some ambitious e-programmes, particular in Denmark, we are still seeing a low use of ICT-based solutions. How can European administration harvest the potential of ICT for innovation, growth and the full participation of all in the information society? What polices are EU and national administration putting in place to address this? What may be the impact of social computing, web 2.0. and new user-centered approaches to e-Government for increased take-up of e-services and how do new channels for e-participation affect relations between citizens, government and business? The following topics are addressed in the course: • E-government and web 2.0 strategies and policy, concepts and definitions • National e-government strategies, the long history of policy initiatives leading to the Danish frontrunner position • Local policy initiatives supporting the national e-government strategy • EU -level e-government policies and strategies, trends and priorities in the development of EU e-government strategies and their impact in the member-states • examples of e-government strategies and best practices Government 2.0 cases from the selected EU Member States • The Scandinavian approach, how the Nordic Council deals with an e-government agenda in the Scandinavian region • OECD/UN, e-government priorities in a global context • Regulation of international collaboration in e-government, exemplified by e-customs • Specific application area I/ e-democracy and participation • Specific application area II/ digital literacy • Specific application area III/ welfare technologies and eHealth Specific application area IV/ green ICT and sustainability
