Why is it important?
Digital government makes it easier for citizens to interact with government and access its services, all while improving internal processes that save time, money and paper. When government is digital, citizens can provide input for a city council meeting that they can’t attend—making the decision-making process of lawmakers better informed of public opinion. It means that a person can apply for benefits online—eliminating the need for them to drive to a social services office, fill out physical paperwork, wait in line, and use up valuable customer service time. It means people can access the records they need, pay the bills they owe, and find out the latest news on local development. Digital government is about making interactions with government effortless and encouraging self-service – something that saves time and money for everyone.
