About this good practice
The
network was formed when the national
campaign called Increased Digital Participation
– Digidel 2013 – was completed.

knowledge to increase digital participation
and availability of digital services.
Another task is to coordinate and plan
joint efforts – including Sweden’s participation
in the annual international Get
Online Week and also the national e-citizen
week, where several authorities and
organizations are represented.
Increased knowledge
The purpose of the e-citizen week is to:
• Increase digital participation amongst
citizens.
• Increase the use and knowledge of
e-services, with particular focus on the
public.
• Create an opportunity for dialogue
between e-service developers and those
who meet end-users
• A constantly relevant and increasingly
important question is to practice a critical
approach with more knowledge of
source criticism and how to search, manage
and assess the credibility of information
and news online.
To reach the objectives regions, municipalities
and organizations work together to
create venues for the e-citizen week.
