In our interconnected world driven by data, algorithms, and automation, the 2024 International Conference on Theory and Practice of Electronic Governance (ICEGOV) focuses on discussing “Trust and Ethical Digital Governance for the World We Want.” This theme highlights the pressing need to re-examine the roles of citizens, industry, academia, and governments in developing trust and advancing ethical practices in digital governance. Our current time, in particular due to the recent surge in AI offerings, is marked by fear, distrust, misinformation, and power imbalances, urging us to confront these challenges within digital governance.

Integrating ethical principles into the design and understanding of technological advancements is crucial to ensure digital governance serves the public good while building trust among citizens and institutions.
