Governments are increasingly looking for ways to use digital technologies to create a greener future. This guidance note gives important advice to policymakers, emphasizing the importance of adequate leadership and dedication in implementing coordinated GovTech and Green policies. 
By addressing the climate change impacts of digitalization, the note advocates for the adoption of green digital service delivery, paperless administration, and integrated services to reduce carbon footprint. The focus is on "greening Public Administration through GovTech," defined as policies and solutions that prioritize environmental considerations in design, maximizing green benefits while mitigating potential negative impacts. The note delves into three main topics: greening government processes through digital solutions, enhancing digital service delivery sustainability, and identifying policy mechanisms for integrating green digital approaches across government systems.
