*TRACK 1 : SOCIAL MEDIA AND GOVERNMENT*



Social media use in public administration has been growing rapidly around
the world. Since the launch of web 2.0 many governments and public
officials use new online tools to communicate among themselves, and with
organizations and citizens. Recently this growing use has been creating new
challenges for government users (e.g., regulations, policies), and an
overwhelming increase in messages and other communications from citizens
that are difficult to accommodate. These outcomes have started changing
government interaction among their own personnel and with citizens and
other agencies.:

 *ABOUT THE CONFERENCE*



dg.o - 14th Annual International Conference on Digital Government Research

Home page: http://dgo2013.dgsna.org



The dg.o conferences are an established forum for presentation, discussion,
and demonstration of interdisciplinary e-Government research, technology
innovation, applications, and practice. Each year the conference combines:



Presentations of effective partnerships and collaborations among government
professionals and agencies, university researchers, relevant businesses,
and NGOs, as well as grassroots citizen groups, to advance the practice of
e-Government.

Presentations and discussions on new research on e-Government as an
interdisciplinary domain that lies at the intersections of information
technology research, social and behavioural science research, and the
challenges and missions of government.



A showcase of e-Government projects, implementations, and initiatives that
bring together the research and practitioner communities, demonstrate the
effectiveness and/or challenges of e-Government, and offer best practices.

This year, the conference program will focus on research and practice
related to the adoption of smart technologies by governments, citizens as
well as private and non-profit organizations. More and more, the adoption
of smart technologies by individuals and organizations is opening new
opportunities for creating public-private partnerships to improve current
government services as well as to create new, innovative ones.



Submissions addressing this theme could include but are not limited to: smart
technologies for governments, semantic technologies for e-government, web
services applications, open and transparent government; social media and
public participation; effective use of social media by governments; crowd
sourcing for government decision making; transformative government; models
of collaboration among government, industry, NGOs, and citizens; data
integration, visualizations, and analytics for government decision making;
agile and flexible government; financial/economic/social policy making;
policy and governance issues that enable, facilitate, and promote smart
government; government productivity and effectiveness; service quality and
customer-centric e-Government; social and health infrastructure; global
government collaboration models and practices; infrastructure for data
sharing among government agencies; computing infrastructure models,
cyber-security and project management; IT-enabled government management and
operations, and interest in program execution; IT and tools to support
government security; and methods to measure and evaluate success in
e-Government.
