Transactional e-governance development project to launch in Armenia November 30, 2012 - 20:54 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - A new project on transactional e-governance development will be launched in Armenia December 3 with support from the European Union. The new e-Armenia initiative aims to create transactional electronic services, assist the digitalisation of the Armenian civil registry and provide Armenian citizens with a new way to communicate with their Government. The project will also digitize the national archives, create an electronic statistics system and an email system for government contacts. The overall efforts are expected to strengthen public sector reform in Armenia and introduce new systems for e-Governance, leading to a positive impact on democratic development and good governance, as well as transparency and anticorruption measures. The “Transactional e-Governance Development in Armenia” project is financed by the European Union with €1.3 million and will last for 2 years. E-Armenia's opening event will take place at the Marriott Hotel starting from 11:00. The launch will be welcomed by Traian Hristea, the head of European Union Delegation to Armenia and Mr. David Sargsyan, chief of the Republic of Armenia Government Staff. They will be followed by a presentation of the project and the overall e-Governance system in Armenia by Mr. Ivar Tallo, the Project team leader, according to a press release.
