e-Governance Support to Ukraine
The objective of the project “e-Governance Support to Ukraine” was twofold:
- The enhanced capacity of a selected oblast to implement ICTs for more efficient and transparent governance and local democracy;
- The creation of an example for the central level authorities for further implementation of the process in other oblasts.
The project was divided into 4 work packages, which included strategic support and training for officials as well as the implementation of technical solutions. The second phase of the project was focused on the implementation of e-government solutions in the cities and oblasts of Western Ukraine (Ivano-Frankivsk oblast administration, the city councils of Ivano-Frankivsk, Kalush, Dolyna and Lviv).
