On the 9th and 10th October 2008 the 4th Conference on eServices in European Civil Registration took place at the cityhall Schöneberg in Berlin (Germany). The conference brought together more than 150 stakeholders in civil registration from 22 countries.
The international conference was organised by the RISER Consortium, which works on the deployment of the Trans-European Registry Information Service on European Residents (RISER). RISER is supported by the European Commission under the eTEN Programme. Again this annual conference pointed out the importance of RISER as a unique platform for cross-border knowledge exchange on topics like civil registration and data protection.
