E-government is an important priority of the European Commission. A 2016 study shows that some members of the EU have made significant progress in the recent past, whilst other countries are still struggling to move past the initial stages. To address this disparate progress and advance e-government implementation more uniformly, the EC introduced Single Digital Gateway (SDG) regulation in 2018. This white paper by doctoral researcher Hamza Aurangzeb provides an overview of the current state of e-government and SDG implementation in Belgium, and it highlights the challenges and barriers that are hindering the advancement of e-government.
