Impact assessment of e-governance projects: a benchmark for the future

Abstract

I n recent years, a large number of countries have launched “e-government” programmes, and several development agencies and governments have identified e-government implementation as a key policy priority. So, when the Centre for Electronic Governance at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA) announced a joint workshop with the Department of IT, Government of India, on Impact Assessment of e-Governance Projects, Vikalpa seized the opportunity to organize a colloquium on the topic based on the proceedings of the workshop.
