Workshop on
Evolving Citizen Centric Rural e-governance Framework
March, 2010

Call for papers

Apathetic response of citizens to any new technology spells its eventual doom. Significant deliberations prevail around imbibing a citizen-centric approach in design of rural e-Government initiatives. The prevalent models to explicate generic e-Governance growth cannot completely account for sustainable uptake of technologies in the rural context. As a result there is a need to separately identify issues confronting design and uptake of a rural ICT initiative in context of India for it to be completely responsive to governance needs of its citizens and to design appropriate e-Governance contents for training senior and middle level officers of India.


The theme of this conference is:
To propose a citizen-centric rural e-governance framework this is responsive to citizens’ aspirations and connects to rural reality.
