The Network of Senior E-Government Officials organised in co-operation with the Working Party on Information Security and Privacy an expert seminar on The Business Case for Electronic Identity Management. The seminar took place on 19-20 November 2008 at the OECD headquarters in Paris with 52 participants representing 28 delegations from OECD and non-OECD countries.
The seminar was part of the OECD E-Government Project’s work on cost-benefit analysis of e-government and was one of the prioritised activities of the complementary work programme of the Network. The results of the seminar will be channelled into the coming two years work on innovative service design and delivery as suggested in the draft Programme of Work and Budget 2009-2010 of the Public Governance Committee.
Objective
The objective of the seminar was to exchange experiences and good practices on building the business case for digital identity management and understand its fundamental role in the deployment of e-government and innovation in service delivery.
The seminar covered three interrelated themes of digital identity management:
• The initial identity management decision.
• The implementation within a national context.
• The inter-operability between, on the one hand, the public and private sector and, on the other,across national governments or levels of governments.
