26: Trust
Focus research and implementation on increasing trust through data protection, identity management and security Other Information:
Identity management, data privacy and security are the sine qua non of successful eParticipation, especially in the context
of Web 2.0 personalised tools and social networking and the highly interactive and participative processes involved. Well
functioning and ubiquitous federated and interoperable identity and/or authentication systems are vital. New approaches to
trust are needed to ensure eParticipation is successful, not just for data protection but also for example, through transparency,
openness, a trust which goes between all stakeholders, reducing the cultural and legal barriers, access to independent support
and monitoring, etc.
