4th WeGO Awards

GSEF's partner, WeGO, has launched the 4th WeGO Awards - a triennial competition that recognizes and promotes local governments with exemplary projects and solutions that use ICT to help improve the quality of life of citizens. 
We recommend GSEF's friends to apply and  share the smart SSE projects in your city with the world.  
We believe that the categories of "Open and Inclusive City" and "Sustainable City" would be of interest to SSE stakeholders
