Tajikistan and Kazakhstan hope to enforce democracy with the help of ICTs

The representatives from Tajikistan and Kazakhstan local and central governments, and civil society arrived yesterday in Estonia to work together with the experts of e-Governance Academy (eGA) on the action plan for e-governance development in pilot towns in Tajikistan.

 

After some years of economic difficulties, many countries in Central Asia have shown interest in modernising their societies and fostering e-governance. According to the member of the management board of eGA Mr Ivar Tallo, the reason for this is a wish to ease the everyday bureaucracy and strengthen democracy with the help of modern technologies.

 

During one week, participants get acquianted with ICT strategic planning, management, and cooperation, legal framework for information society developments as well as concrete projects and solutions.
