>
>Dear Colleagues,
>
>eGOVERNMENT CASE STUDY COMPETITION: �200 Prizes
>
>Case studies of e-government success and failure are of considerable
>value as an online resource. I would thus like to generate some more
>cases, with a particular focus on success and failure factors.
>
>With this in mind, I would like to invite you to submit a case study of
>e-government success/failure. The required format is given at the end
>of this message, or you can submit online via the rather unlovely page
>I've loaded at: www.egov4dev.org/casestudy1.htm
>
>To provide some incentive/reward for efforts, those cases submitted by
>August 31 will be judged on the basis of their
>learning/knowledge-building value, and the authors of the top three
>cases will each receive a �200 payment. Value comes especially from
>balanced and objective rather than 'rose-tinted' and subjective cases.
>
>Note that e-government cases must involve a public sector organisation
>as at least one of the users, owners or funders of an ICT-based system.
>
>If you have any feedback or questions on this idea or the case formats,
>do please contact me.
