Digital Iceland advisory role
The core services of Digital Iceland are currently being implemented by a number of government agencies. Digital Iceland plays an advisory role and support for project management when it comes to large interdisciplinary projects. Examples of such projects include electronic registrations where district officials, borrowers and lenders join forces together. Same applies to team work to ensure digital accessibility for disabled people, powered by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor Market in a group with Digital Iceland, Heilsuvera and Audkenni. Furthermore digital services aimed at older people are in process also powered by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor Market with support from Ministry of Health and Digital Iceland.
