You are invited to submit a paper for presentation and discussion at the 
2014 pre-ECIS Special Interest Group (SIG) eGovernment workshop, to be 
held on 8 June 2014, in Tel Aviv, Israel.

The general objective of SIG eGovernment is to promote quality and 
relevance in eGovernment research. As previous SIG eGovernment pre-AIS 
event workshops, this workshop is dedicated to open discussions about 
the most important issues today, theoretical streams and different 
possible ways forward. The focus of the workshop is informed discussion.

*/Workshop Objective/*

Transformations in the digital public sector call for a redefinition of 
the roles of Information Systems and innovation-driving public service 
models comprising co-development processes. Approaches like the 
CO-design, CO-creative CO-constructive development ("CO3") have been 
setting the process-framework with living labs, participatory design and 
open innovation.

Four main streams of change can be identified in re-shaping the public 
sector:

·The generation and opening up of larger amounts of data from public 
sector operations.

·Increased and strengthened interactions between government and citizens.

·Simplified and speedier IS development and deployment.

·The growth of new financial solutions with innovation consortia and 
public/private partnerships.

The goal of this workshop is to provide an informal interactive venue 
for discussing the expanding knowledge on these streams, and on their 
inter-relationships, by bridging the perspectives from IS, e-government, 
public administration and social sciences, and from the practitioner and 
citizen perspectives.

eGovernment-related questions to be discussed include (but are not 
limited to):

- Big/open data.

- Smart Cities.

- Social media and services.

- Open innovation.

- Citizen-centric eGovernment.

- User-driven eGovernment design, management, and implementation.

- Transparency and openness.

- The relationship between eGovernment and the IS field.

- Engaging stakeholders in eGovernment research.

- Challenges of open-source and open-standard solutions.

Details of the programme will be made available online at:

*/Submission/*

We welcome full research papers, research in progress, and discussion 
papers. Full papers should be max 5000 words. Discussion papers may be 
short, just a few pages, but should clearly and distinctly address one 
or more issues pertinent to eGovernment research including research 
methods and quality as well as focus of studies. Papers should be 
designed to support in-depth discussions of one of these issues during 
the workshop. The workshop papers will be clustered and each session 
will discuss a small set of papers focusing on similar or related issues.

Each submission will be reviewed by the workshop co-chairs and at least 
one external reviewer. The submission will not be published as 
proceedings, and the authors will retain full authorship rights.
