eGovernment for Bangladesh A
Strategic Pathway to Success
This strategic pathway has arisen from four
years of ongoing academic research and an
applied research project. The pathway offers
strategic initiatives to guide the adoption of
e‐government in Bangladesh effectively. It also
has significant potential to address some of the
entrenched problems in the public sector
environment of other least developed countries.
The strategy identifies the underlying issues
and causes that need to be addressed before
taking up the infrastructure and technological
solutions.
A key strategy outlined in this book is the
capacity building activities that will address
the ICT knowledge gap that is seen to be the
underlying cause of many of the other problems
that are interfering with ICT adoption in
Bangladesh. The strategic pathway is evidence
that practical application of an academic study
has considerable benefits for both researchers
and practitioners. It bridges the divide between
academia and the community and it enhances
overall outcomes. This book is primarily
targeted at policy makers and future leaders of
Bangladesh in planning and implementing
e-government.
