Chapter 6: Working with Donors
Within every government, there is intense competition for financial resources. National budgets must take into consideration the demands of public health, education, physical infrastructure and defense, to name a few of the most pressing priorities facing governments today. In developing countries, where finances are even tighter, governments often depend on donor funding to implement large scale, resource-intensive projects, including e-Government projects. Therefore, cultivating strong relationships with donors is important to the financing of e-Government initiatives.
