Prospects of electronic governance implementation in Georgia

Abstract

E-governance refers to the information and communication technologies (ICT) used to improve the efficiency, accessibility, transparency, and accountability of government services and processes. It includes a wide range of initiatives aimed at digitizing government operations and interactions with citizens, businesses, and other government entities. E-Government is, to some extent, more applied than theoretical. It is influenced by the tasks facing the public administration at this or that stage of development. Initially, the interest of researchers in this field was related to the automation of public administration, then to the provision of electronic services by the state, and finally to organizational changes in governance. The paper discusses opinions about electronic government introduction, development, future perspectives, and a theoretical and practical analysis of current innovations in this field in Georgia and some foreign countries.
