sa urmeze un curs pentru a invata sa lucreze pe calculator.

>>>>09.Using ICT to Improve Government Efficiency
and Transparency:
the Mozambican Case
...(developmentgateway, 26/10/2004)
To date, most effort, in e-government, is centered on publishing
and
not in the subsequent phases of interaction and transaction.
Governments,
particularly in developing countries face limited resources
to move
fast in e-government, so a strong partnership between the public,
government, business and the civil society is instrumental in
determining the
expected outcomes and the effectiveness of e-government.
