When implementing ambitious and complex e-government projects, the public administration, but especially cultural providers, need solutions that are tailored to web and open source-based solutions. The Corona crisis teaches us that eGov, eHealth and eLearning are essential issues of the future in order to keep Europe and its cultural and educational institutions working even in times of shutdown. Many administrations have meanwhile gained far-reaching, positive experience with the use of Free Software. The issue of digital sustainability also plays a decisive role in managing digital resources in a sustainable manner in such a way as to make them accessible and enhance their value for future generations. Green IT has to be resource-saving and energy-efficient at the same time, and it must also be flexible and expandable for future users. The experts in this specialist forum will present innovative open-source based software solutions for a sustainable e-government, as well as for cultural and educational institutions, and will also be discussing with you the administrations' view of Free Software projects.

Building a digital society for all - lessons from e-Estonia (engl.)
Anett Numa e-Estonia, Digital Transformation Adviser
Named ‘the most advanced digital society in the world’ by Wired, Estonians are pathfinders, who have built an efficient, secure and transparent ecosystem that delivers great value during the pandemic and beyond, saving lives, time and money. Digitalization has harmonized the evolution of Estonia and created tons of convenient digital services for people. Today, 99% of government services are accessible online. Technology has made the life more flexible and has given people more time to focus on creativity and innovation. An essential part of this ecosystem is flexibility and ability to improve e-services and allowing government systems to grow. The Estonian vision of becoming a smart country revolves around three aspects: accessibility, interoperability and user-friendliness. Estonia was also the first country to legalize testing self-driven vehicles on public roads. What makes the Estonian example such a unique one? Clearly the way of thinking, an opened mindset and curiosity for what the future has to offer. Willingness to take risky decisions is also an essential aspect in order to create a distinctive system. In the process of shaping new policies and regulations, the decision-makers always need to involve experts from private sector.
