The
Aveiro Digital Programme 2003-2006 covers all the 11 municipalities
in the AMRIA region, with a range of objectives designed to
encourage modernisation and competency upgrade, at both the personal
and organisational levels, and to positively impact on living
standards in the ‘Ria de Aveiro’ region.
This
geographical coverage enables a greater sharing of services and
solutions. Processes and good practices can be disseminated through
a wide variety of regional development bodies, expanding and
multiplying the effect of the investments made.
The
regional nature of this initiative also opens up new prospects and
opportunities for the introduction of services which, by their very
nature and multipoint architecture, would logically operate on an
inter-municipal basis and which must be designed as such if they are
to be of any use.
It is
also understood, however, that investment distribution must follow
the logic dictated by the specific nature of each service. It must
also guarantee control over resource deployment and wastage, in
order to ensure the effective and appropriate operationalisation of
the commitments made under a Programme Contract.
