The current phase involves stakeholders, citizens, senior officials and professionals from the ICT industry. Stakeholders can present a roadmap for improving existing eServices, while citizens can suggest ways to upgrade and improve the services they use. ICT professionals can put forward ways of exploiting existing infrastructure so as to provide enhanced services in the future.
The scientific committee will select proposals that merit the most consideration and present them at an open event. The services that are being recommended for enhancement involve the General Secretariat of Information Systems (GSIS), the Social Security Organisation (IKA), the Manpower Employment Organisation (OAED), the eGovernment Centre for Social Security (IDIKA) and electronic urban planning.
