EUkraine

National networks of the Information Society are the practical implementation of the Global Information Space Project. For a long time international and European organizations have been carrying out different campaigns on stimulation of the development and implementation of the national strategies of creation of the Information Society.
The term "E-Ukraine" originated from the title of the one of the first Ukrainian popular scientific issues dedicated to this topic, the book by Oleh Shevchuk and Oleksiy Holobutsky "E-Ukraine. Information Society in Ukraine. To Be or Not to Be". They became also the co-authors of the project "Ukrainian Network of the Information Society". That's why the name of the respective web site reads: www.e-ukraine.org.ua.
"Ukrainian Network of the Information Society" has just started functioning and the authors of the Project will appreciate any input. We are seeking ways for Ukraine to successfully integrate into the Global Information Space. We are open to cooperation within the framework of the Project.
