The DLM-Forum 2002 welcomes specialists and executives representing different disciplines: public administration, archives, the ICT-industry and research. A large number of participants from the EU Member States, regions, candidate states and other European countries are expected.
The DLM-Forum 2002 will be organised by the Secretariat for the Information Society of the Catalan government together with other Catalan institutions and departments of the Spanish central government. Support is being provided by the European Union Presidencies of Sweden (1st half of 2001), Belgium (2nd half 2001) and Spain (1st half of 2002), the European Commission (Secretariat General, DG Information Society) and representatives from the ICT industry.
The aspects of short and longterm preservation, transparency, access and openness of public information will play an important role at the DLM-Forum 2002.
The forum aims to achieve concrete results in this area. Notably, it will examine the creation of a Europe-wide network of excellence on electronic archives in order to achieve even wider cooperation in this area between Member States, regions and at Community level.
