GEN6 – new eGov project
A democratic Europe, with a strong and productive economy, requires service-oriented, secure, reliable and innovative government. This is necessary at all levels, regardless of size and location, and it must be used by all groups of citizens (elderly, those with disabilities, youngsters, immigrants, etc.)
The successful implementation of eGovernment can improve services, strengthen societies, increase productivity and welfare, and reinforce democracy. Such success will only be achieved, however, by pursuing a long-term vision, with clear and sustainable objectives. Naturally, this requires the participation of all stakeholders: government, citizens and industry.
The GEN6 project will contribute to these broad objectives, in the area of communications and the transition to IPv6 in governmental areas.
National Pilots
Comprising 19 partners from nine different countries, GEN6 will have four different national pilots. Some of these will be replicated in complementary ways in different countries, considering different existing approaches with IPv4:
1. Germany, Spain, Netherlands and Turkey: IPv6 upgrade of eGoverment Network Infrastructures, e-Identification, Services and Applications
2. Luxembourg: IPv6 upgrade of Secure Cloud Services
3. Greece: IPv6 upgrade of Energy Efficiency in School Networks
4. Slovenia: IPv6 upgrade of Emergency Response Environments
