eGe Launch Press Conference - Tunis Nov. 2005

The EgE Action Plan (attached below)is designed to project an integrated approach that leverages the core capacities and expertise of each organization in a collaborative manner so as to enable each country to interact systematically and efficiently with them.  While the issues addressed in this action plan are global in nature, the agencies involved have agreed to focus on the Latin American and the Caribbean region, in order to test the approach on a limited scale.   Based on the experience of this regional effort, other areas of the world will be able to build upon and improve this approach. The Task Force is designed with a duration limited to 2 years. At the end of this period, member organizations will assess the results achieved and either dissolve, strengthen or transform the inter-agency Task Force, as they deem necessary.

Task force activities will focus on a limited number of strategic areas that contribute to e-government effectiveness and support specific processes that facilitate effective collaboration between beneficiary countries and task force members.
