The e-Governance Conference, the most influential e-governance event in the international arena, brings together strategists, decision-makers, policy implementers, and donors to chart a future course for digital governance. The e-Governance Academy has organised this annual event since 2015.

The 2023 edition will be co-organised with Estonia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the theme “Digital Innovation as Catalyst for Social Change”. The event will take place on 30-31 May in Tallinn and online.

For the second year in a row, the AU-EU Digital for Development (D4D) Hub is joining the e-Governance Conference. In line with its mission of supporting African institutions to lay grounds for an inclusive and sustainable digital transformation, the AU-EU D4D Hub will support the participation of an African delegation and host a dialogue between African and European digital stakeholders.

With the objective of promoting a broader public debate on e-governance across the African continent and ensuring that the outcomes of such dialogue permeate to other sectors of society, the AU-EU D4D Hub is sponsoring a reporting trip for three African journalists to attend the e-Governance Conference in person.

The selected journalists will be provided with learning and interview opportunities to help them report on stories related to the continent’s digital transformation and cooperation initiatives between African and European partners.
