Webinars "Digital Transformation in States and Federal District" and "Digital Transformation in Municipalities"

The dissemination of digital technologies in the public sector can bring benefits, such as improving efficiency and service delivery. For this, it is necessary to ensure, for example, that the adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) results in effective gains for citizens' lives, enhancing the response and service capacity of federal, state, and municipal agencies in the face of various population demands and the sector itself. In this context, it becomes essential to understand how public organizations in Brazil are aligning with the digital transformation process. 

To discuss this topic, the Regional Center for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br) of the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br) will conduct two webinars on August 19 and 27: the first about "Digital Transformation in States and Federal District," and the second addressing the reality of Brazilian municipalities.

Based on the results of the ICT Electronic Government Survey 2019, from the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br) released in May this year, the meetings aim to understand the challenges, opportunities, and disparities existing between Brazilian states and municipalities in the use of technologies, including subjects such as data analysis and Big Data, the development of smart cities, public services via the Internet, and online transparency tools. To contribute to the discussion, government representatives, academia, and the third sector will be present. 

The meetings will be broadcast live on the NIC.br channel on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/NICbrvideos.
