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

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:
