ENISIR
ENISIR European IST Network of Innovative Applications Research and Result centers
ENISIR is a Pan-European initiative to build an evolutive,
integrative, co-operative and Common Model of Reference of Innovation,
Research, Development, Use and Sustainable Exploitation Environments of
the Information Society Technologies.
ENISIR seeks in this session to open a representative discussion in
cross-disciplinary thematic matrix of Interest Groups concerned to IST,
EU-RTD+I and related to Government, Privacy, Services, Citizen, FLOSS
and networking co-operation specially.
The results and mainstreams will be the focus on the ENISIR IST-4
project proposal/s and the participants the base representative of the
leadership and EU interest and impact.
This event is “a must†for any researcher, industrialist or

CONSEN (1) conceptualises a European Open Information-Space where
European citizens can freely work, live and participate in a
multicultural, multilingual information based society representing the
most important e-Government aspects of the EU IST program.
CONSEN Proposed Objectives
Develop and demonstrate an integrated participatory methodology and
sustainable organizational framework based on existing Information and
Communication Technologies (ICT) – an approach which will minimize
costs and maximize social and individual benefits. These will
facilitate regional development and collaboration, rationalize and
integrate necessary services, focus innovative technologies, conserve
cultural heritages and diversify social incentives for culture, belief,
gender and economical achievements.
CONSEN approach is focused on six or seven regional pilot projects using in-hand technologies
and integrating their regional government networks with services for protection
and definition of personal digital information.
This will enable hands-on testing and use of existing integrated governmental
and community networks in a single/common information environment and communication space (Info-Space).
Contributions like Estonian government could add experience in last two
years on work for e-tax Agency, e-Citizen etc. programmes in the
application of this new methods of integration, development and
exploitation. These will increase the quality of information and
acceptance of concepts facilitating citizen and cross-disciplinary
participation. The services to be provided will include economic,
social, educational and recreational services and be an incentive to
promote rural and community viability. This approach will demonstrate
the feasibility of shared investment expanded to other regions with a
minimum cost, sustainability, maximized ICT benefits and option to use
the lessons learned to identify priorities. As such CONSEN results will
be a major contribution to the EU IST development priorities.
(1) The CONSEN community is a two year old pan-European organization
concerned with Innovation, Research and Technology development. It is a
model of a non profit, collaborative meritocracy geared to maximize
society benefits. The CONSEN proposal is based on CONSEN IST-IP-2319
(ref.002107) and TECAPIS SME-1 (ref. 005914) projects.

CONSEN participate in the event AMI@Work 7/9th June in Brussels Expo-auditorium.
The European Commission has launched on 7 June Eight "living laboratories",
set up to assess how information and communication technologies can be
used to redesign the way we work. This initiative, under the name of
Ambient intelligence at work (AMI@work), is backed by businesses and
ICT suppliers.
It should encourage more innovation in the work place, according to the 300 delegates
participating at its launch event in Brussels. The initiative is shaped
around a family of brainstorming research communities. They are open to
anyone, and are supported by the Community funding for information
society technologies under the EU research budget.
