The international EGOV conference series gives annual state of the art overviews in eGovernment and eGovernance research, implementation and application. Thereby, the conferences provide important guidance for research and development in this fast-moving domain of study.
The annual EGOV conferences bring together leading researchers and professionals from all over the globe and from many disciplines. Over the years, the interest has increased tremendously. The 2006 conference attracted about 130 participants from 28 countries all over the world including developing countries, with 30 contributions in outstanding research, 30 contributions in ongoing research, 15 projects contributions and 5 workshops. Hence the EGOV Conferences have become a reunion for academics and professionals as well as an important ground for networking.
The EGOV Conference Series hosts four distinct formats of contributions: Scientific papers (distinguished between completed research and ongoing research); project presentations, and workshops. These formats encourage scientific rigor and discussions of state of the art in the study domain, but also welcome innovative research work in progress, and studies of practical eGovernment projects and systems implementation.
The conference also includes a PhD student colloquium providing doctoral students with an international forum for presenting their work, networking opportunities and cross-disciplinary inspiration.
Over the years, organizational and user-related issues long discussed among researchers have finally gained influence on practice. Conversely, eGovernment practice has influenced and inspired eGovernment research. A wide range of topics has received scholarly attention over the years. In recent years, the assessment of eGovernment efforts, the prospects of eGovernment as a research discipline, and the role of information and communication technology for development rank among the top topics on the research agenda. For the sixth series of EGOV conferences, hence, the list of topics includes the following:
Strategies and frameworks, motivators, contextual biases
Frameworks and guidelines for eGovernment and eGovernance
eGovernment policies, strategies and implementation
Legal, societal and cultural aspects of eGovernment
Public awareness of eServices availability
eDemocracy and eParticipation challenges
Research challenges and frameworks
eParticipation and eVoting tools and technologies
eParticipation socio-technical research concepts and solutions
Applications and cases of eParticipation solutions
Social networking and communities to foster political debates
The role of local communities in eParticipation
Assessment of eGovernment and eParticipation
Methods and tools for assessment
Experiences from assessment trials
Analysis of values for eGovernment stakeholders
Public value generation through eGovernment

---------------------
Third PhD Colloquium
The 3rd EGOV PhD student colloquium will be held on 2nd and 3rd September in conjunction with the annual EGOV conference.
The objective of the Colloquium is to bring together Ph.D. students working on any aspect of eGovernment (technical, organizational, informational, societal, socio- technical, research foundations, tools, and applications, or any combination) from a theoretical or empirical perspective and give them an opportunity to present and discuss their research in a constructive, and international atmosphere. The Colloquium will particularly provide an opportunity for student participants to interact with leading researchers in the field and with the eGovernment community as a whole. Both the diversity of research avenues and the interactive setting will provide a unique learning opportunity for all participants of the colloquium.
A committee of PhD students guided by advice from two international faculty members will organize the PhD Colloquium.
Submission guidelines
Submissions to the PhD Colloquium should be sent to the HYPERLINK "http://www.uni-koblenz.de/%7Eegov/egov-s/egov2007/organising" PhD program chairs by email. Paper submission shall follow the same guidelines as those for general EGOV07 research paper submissions. However, PhD Colloquium submissions should be marked as such. We will group the PhD submissions in a way that early-stage and close-to-defence contributions are grouped separately for presentation and discussion. This will allow for very focused discussion, comments, and support, which will meet the particular needs of the individual study phase. Plenary parts will also be organized to support networking among all students.

PhD papers should be single-authored and should indicate the name and affiliation of proposer, abstract (max. 300 words), 3-5 keywords, introduction, research aim, theory, method, results achieved and/or prospective results, references.
Since the number of participants is limited, the proposals will be critically reviewed by the organising committee for rigor, quality and relevance. Students may come from any discipline relevant to eGovernment research and practice. There will be a best contribution award.
