Officers within public administrations need new skills and training to adapt local public services to the digital era and to work across sectors within the administrations and across borders.
The follow-up of the proposed ideas is ongoing, please check here: https://ec.europa.eu/futurium/en/blog/how-it-going-your-ideas-egovernment-action-plan
we liked this proposal.
* For this to happen we will need support from education ministries, ICT companies, developers of technology, support of governments to allow training of civil servants, money to pay for trainings, invest in motivation of civil servants
*The beneficiaries of this would be: citizens who are served, public administrations will get better workers, faster, efficient service delivery.
*We are confident that this idea will be supported by all public servants.
* A big barrier would be non willigness to learn, motivation, failure to see the positives in learning.
* similar solutions: We do not know any.
