E-DEVELOPMENT IN LOCAL MUNICIPALITIES
 
On May 4 in Tartu, Estonia, the experts on e-development in local municipalities met in a conference organised by the INTERREG IVC project DLA – Digital Local Agenda". The aim of the conference was to discuss possibilities for development of common methodology useful for public authorities in all Europe for development of e-services in their region. The methodology under development includes means to assess the state of the art in the municipality and select proper means for further development and enhance availability of e-services.
 
During this conference experts from Estonia and partner countries exchanged their views and knowledge about innovation and Digital Agendas. In addition, two experts from another EU project dealing with DLA issues – CEMSDI project (http://www.cemsdi.eu/) took also part of the conference, giving participants the opportunity of exchanging knowledge between the two projects.
 
The conference was open to all interested people and was attended by both experts from the DLA project, invited experts from other related projects and interested politicians from local municipalities in Estonia.

After the conference, DLA partners met in the Steering Committee group, to plan next steps for the project. In this sense, next months DLA experts will work on general guidelines for a DLA and a common methodology to implement them. Once concluded this work, in November the project will organize a dissemination conference in Ireland to present the main results and giving all stakeholders the opportunity to express their views and opinion about the general DLA created.
