Impact of E-Administration on Rural Citizens and Governments in France and Australia

This project aims to investigate the impact of e-administration on rural citizens in Australia and France. It will determine if rural citizens have access to equitable services offered by their governments via technology. It will enhance e-government initiatives (cf. 2005 action plan for the E-Europe, and e-government initiatives in Australia) in both countries while investigating the sociotechnical and digital divide issues of the rural community. This research is funded by the French Embassy in Australia and Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia.
