General E-Government and E-Governance Track
The track serves as an umbrella for all E-Government (EGOV) and E-Governance-related topics except the dedicated-topic tracks. E-Government research, also increasingly referred to as Digital Government Research, has developed over the past decades into a mature domain of multidisciplinary study with its own identity and profile. In this track, EGOV foundations and theories are explored. Moreover, the track puts special emphasis on studying a multitude of topics and areas of practice related to EGOV. We solicit high-quality submissions representing a variety of research approaches. This track also covers several special topics in E-Government/Digital Government research.
Areas of focus and interest include but are not limited to the following topics:
* Foundations of E-Government and E-Governance research * E-Government theories, views, methods and frameworks * Interdisciplinary approaches (e.g. intersection with other disciplines such as Information Science, Information Systems Research, Computer Science, Public Administration, and Political Science among others) * Digital government strategies * Strategies and policies for ICT-enabled public administration overhaul * Public administration back and front-office overhaul (cases, practices, and lessons learned) * Stakeholder and change management in government * Digital Transformation in the public sector * Innovation management and transformational government * Smart Government and Smart Governance * Smart Governance as enabler of transformation * Management of public-private partnerships * E-Government project success and failure * Public information governance (strategies, information sharing practices, privacy practices) * Policies and decision-making in the context of E-Government * Data-driven decision and policy making * Public records management (challenges, opportunities, and cases) * Public sector information management (challenges and opportunities, and cases) * Detection of and protection against misinformation and disinformation (for example, rumor control) * Intergovernmental integration and interoperation * Crisis and emergency management in the context of E-Government * Crisis Information Management Systems and their uses * Emergency Operations and governmental coordination * ICT interoperability and ICT integration in government * Government-sponsored and/or operated public alert systems (pandemic and other alerts) * Post-Covid-19 lessons from the use of and with regard to government ICTs * Pandemic-induced innovations in the public sector * Safe public online access, inclusion, privacy and online identity management * ICT portfolio management in the public sector * ICT insourcing versus outsourcing approaches * Public sector CIOs and/or COOs (roles, impact, span of control, issues, and challenges) * Public sector ICT workforce (management, recruitment, retention, compensation, etc.) * E-Government architectures (vertical, horizontal, and networked) * Enterprise ICT management initiatives * Managing and upgrading public sector legacy systems * Integration of online and inline services (opportunities, challenges, and cases) * Disruptive technologies in the public sector (e.g Artificial Intelligence, Distributed Ledger Technology/Blockchain, and the Internet of Things) * Cross-jurisdictional alliances for online government services * ICT-enabled transnational government collaboration * Special topics (for example, ICT-related legislation, ICT4D, e-Justice, e-Rule-making, etc.) * Geographical information systems in government * Design approaches for ICT solutions in the public sector * ICT usage, acceptance, measurement, benchmarking, and benefit management * Online performance metrics for public services * Return on investment and sustainability of ICT investments

Pandemic-related Precautions
We are preparing for holding the conference in hybrid mode (both onsite and online participation will be possible). This second year of the pandemic might allow for safe travels and safe meetings later this year, we will see. We understand that nobody can know what the exact situation will look like in late summer.
We have prepared a survey, the responses to which will greatly help us plan and prepare for the conference in late summer. So, please take the survey found here:
