  1. GINIE workshop on SDIs:WG1: Coordination & Organisation • Lessons form existing SDIs shows that: • Strong multi-sector coordination is important • Legislation is often helpful to build momentum • Must be sustained over time to overcome agency’s silos mentality • Must provide technical support as well as leadership • Must nurture sustained political support • Must help make the SDI relevant to other stakeholders, demonstrate benefits, help with seed funding • Must disseminate and enforce common standards.

  2. For a European SDI…… • There is a need for a coordinating body at the European level to make it happen • Priority areas: • Support the development of National SDIs through information sharing, comparative studies with common methodology, institutional capacity building • Technical advice and support + technology watch • Promote international standards • Education and awareness + dissemination of demonstration projects, quick win implementations in driving themes such as environment and e-government

  3. Who should be in it? • EC and other EU institutions • Private Sector • Member States • NSDIs and relevant pan-European orgs. • Citizen organisations (e.g. NGOs, Friends of the Earth, etc. ) • Relevant thematic applications and priorities, with strong link to e-government

  4. Structure • The Coordinating body does not need to be big (FGDC = 15 staff) • But also need for a broader reference group • Authoritative in the professional communities and national constituencies. • Own budget
