STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT OF ELECTRONIC GOVERNMENT IN UKRAINE IN THE CONTEXT OF INTEGRATION WITH THE EU

Abstract

The article considers the strategic principles of digital transformation of public administration in Ukraine in the context of integration with the European Union. The article analyses the main achievements in the field of electronic governance in recent years, in particular the creation of the Ministry of Digital Transformation, the launch of the “Diia” digital services ecosystem, the implementation of the “Trembita” interoperable system, and the development of the regulatory framework in the field of cybersecurity and e-identification. The emphasis is on the role of electronic governance as a tool for modernizing the public sector, increasing transparency, accountability and efficiency of administrative services. It is specified that the strategic directions of e-governance development in the context of European integration are: 1) development of digital infrastructure (high-speed Internet, data centers, secure networks); 2) strengthening institutional capacity (implementation of the CDTO institute, strengthening the capacity of communities); 3) improving the cybersecurity system (implementation of the NIS2 directive, creation of SOC centers); 4) increasing the digital literacy of the population and civil servants (through "Diia.Osvita" and educational campaigns); 5) harmonization of digital legislation with the EU acquis (in the areas of eID, data protection, access to services); 6) participation in European initiatives (EU4DigitalUA, DT4UA, Single Digital Gateway); 7) borrowing and exporting best practices (Estonian experience, promotion of the "Diia" application as a model). It has been proven that the effective implementation of these areas will contribute not only to increasing the competitiveness of the state in the digital sphere, but also to its gradual integration into the EU Single Digital Market. It is concluded that e-government should become a system-forming factor of socio-economic development, which requires intersectoral coordination, long-term strategic planning and public consensus on the digital transformation of the state.
