Collaborative E-government

Governments around the world are facing increasingly complex problems. In many cases, solving such problems require several government agencies, non-profits and private organizations to work together [1]. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) play an important role in facilitating these interorganizational collaborations. Moreover, in some cases, ICT adoption and use is transforming the ways in which these organizations interact among themselves. In fact, ICT use in government is also transforming how the citizens interact with governments and how government conducts their daily operations and tasks. As part of this movement, citizens and governments themselves are looking for increased transparency, accountability and performance efficiency. Reaching this goals require for collaboration, knowledge and information sharing for effective management and provision of government services.
