Definition: Government 2.0 The use of IT to socialize and commoditize government services, processes and data. Gartner, 2009 The socialization of information (government to citizens, citizens to government and government to government) is already well advanced in many jurisdictions. Example: data.gov.au The next step will be the socialization of services and processes by engaging individuals and communities to perform part of existing government processes or transform them by leveraging external data and applications. This could include the development of Policy and Legislation? Government 2.0 has seven main characteristics: • It is citizen-driven. • It is employee-centric. • It keeps evolving. • It is transformational.
