eParticipation Conference: Current State of Play & Future Directions
The projects co-funded by the European Commission under the eParticipation Preparatory Action are organising the eParticipation Conference.
The development and wide use of powerful new ICT applications is transforming the way citizens and civil society interact, debate and participate in public life. These new tools have enormous potential to enhance decision-making processes by involving large numbers of EU citizens.
As the eParticipation Preparatory Action, an initiative of the European Parliament launched in 2006, reaches its conclusion, this eParticipation Conference is being organized to demonstrate progress and results in the use of Information and Communication Technologies to enhance citizens' participation in democratic decision-making.
In parallel, there will be an exhibition of project results produced in the context of the Preparatory Action.
The conference is free of charge but only registered delegates will be allowed to entry for security reasons. Registrations should be performed before 10 December 2009 using the registration password: momentum.
