Welcome to ECDG 2019

The European Conference on e-Government has been running now for 19 years. This event has been held in Italy, Ireland, Belgium, UK, Slovenia, to mention a few of the countries who have hosted it. This year we are refocusing the conference to look more broadly at the area of Digital Government. The conference is generally attended by participants from more than 40 countries and attracts an interesting combination of academic scholars, public sector workers and individuals who are engaged in various aspects of Digital Government research and application.

The conference will also host the finals of the Digital Government Excellence Awards.

We are looking forward to welcoming participants to Nicosia, Northern Cyprus on the 24 – 25th October 2019 for the 19th European Conference on Digital Government.

This year in Nicosia we are excited to showcase our diverse city and institution.
