Auditorium Hall

Aim and themes:

The theme of the conference is the analysis of the implementation and functioning of e-government in Poland and in Europe, with a particular emphasis on the impact of digitalisation on public administration activities for citizens. The digital transformation of administration is seen as a response to the need to adapt public administration activities to the changing needs of the society.

The ambition of the Organising Committee is to stimulate and initiate a scientific debate involving academics and practitioners on the question whether information and communication technologies make European and domestic administrations more citizen-oriented?

Special attention will be directed towards e-government as a basis for direct and indirect improvement in the quality of people's lives. The aim of the Jean Monnet Module Conference is to establish the impact of new technological channels of interaction between administration and citizens, on the organisational structure and dynamics of public administration and on the delivery of public services.

As the Polish public administration functions in the European administrative space, the scientific reflection on the eGovernment issues in the EU and other European countries, including the countries of the Eastern Partnership and the Western Balkans, is also required. The issue of using electronic tools within the framework of cooperation between national and European administration will also be discussed.

The conference has an interdisciplinary character including such fields as: law, economics, science of administration, management. The eGovernment will be analysed in terms of: current changes and trends in Polish and European administrative law; organization and management in public administration; the concepts, priorities and activities of the public authorities; relations between representatives of public administration and citizens; historical and socio-political conditions of changes in public administration resulting from its digitalisation.

Panels:

eGovernment for citizens: electronic access to information on administrative matters and public services; citizen-friendly public websites and platforms; digitalisation and efficiency of administrative services; responsibilities of the administration and public service providers in the era of digitisation of administration; eGovernment and fundamental rights, in particular protection of the right to privacy and personal data.
Digital skills of citizens as a condition for the development of e-government: digital exclusion, digital society; availability of digital services, including access to the Internet; digital education.

From eGovernment to eGovernance in the EU and in the member states: democratisation of public life through digital transformation in the EU and in the Member States , proximity and accessibility of administration to citizens through new technologies, e-participation of the public, e-consultation of the public; e-government and citizens' influence on decision-making in public administration.
