Government service delivery is undergoing a major transformation driven by technological change, shifting citizen expectations, and new opportunities to create public value. Two important developments are becoming apparent: a shift toward integrated omnichannel service delivery, and a move from reactive services to more anticipatory and proactive public service provision. However, several key questions remain unresolved, including how these approaches should be implemented in practice, the extent to which they should be adopted, and the types of services for which they are most suitable. Strategies and implementation pathways still need to be carefully designed.

This webinar will address these issues, drawing on findings from two JRC research projects led by external experts, and will include discussion with a panel of practitioners and scholars.
