<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The IFIP EGOV 2025 is a scientific conference that is dedicated to the broader areas of e-Government and e-Democracy, which include facets like Digital Government, e-Participation, Open Government, Smart
Government, AI government, GovTech, Algoritmic Governance, and related topics to digitalization and government.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The conference represents the merge of the IFIP WG 8.5 Electronic Government (EGOV), the IFIP WG 8.5 IFIP Electronic Participation (ePart) and the Conference for E-Democracy and Open Government Conference
(CeDEM).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Several different types of submissions can be made, such as completed research, but also ongoing research, reflections & viewpoints, posters, workshops. The conference organizes a PhD Colloquium and offers
a limited number of PhD bursaries. The day prior to the main conference, there is also a Junior Faculty School for PhD students, postdocs, and junior faculty.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We invite individuals from academic and applied backgrounds as well as from business, public authorities, NGOs, NPOs and education institutions to submit their research papers, reflections, posters as well
as practitioner papers, panel or workshop proposals to the topics addressed in the tracks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt">AI, Data Analytics & Automated Decision Making Track<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">As the Fourth Industrial Revolution creates new tools for conducting economic activities in the private sector, it also equips the public sector with technologies for creating public value and engaging in
digital transformation. While ICT has been fundamental for digitalising public services, the public sector increasingly relies on Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) including Generative AI, (Big) Data Analytics (BDA), Blockchain, 5G, Adaptive
manufacturing and 3D technologies. These innovations accelerate the capacity of the public sector to deliver more impactful and responsive public services.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">As citizens spend more time online, their digital footprints are becoming easier to collect, forming massive interconnected networks of data. Innovative methods and tools to analyse such data and understand
policy implications are in urgent demand. In particular, open data and open government initiatives can create bigger synergy and impact when integrated with new technologies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">However, the use of new technologies by government has some serious ethical and policy implications. Complementing or replacing human-made public service with AI, automating decisions of consequence to people’s
lives, harvesting interconnected data about individuals, etc. raise the risk that exclusion, bias, injustice, and privacy violations can happen on a massive scale. Decisions driven by AI, (Big) Data Analytics, and policy modelling tools may generate optimal
solutions from an economic perspective, but not from a social inclusion perspective, or give rise to transparency and fairness concerns. Privacy and security issues with regards to citizens’ everyday digital footprints also have legal and policy implications.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">This track invites papers that can advance theoretical, practical and policy questions on those issues. Papers are expected to address the topics including but not limited to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
