Eiropas i2010 iniciatīva par e-integrāciju: E-integrācija ir pasākumi, kuru mērķis ir izveidot integratīvu informācijas sabiedrību, t.i., visiem pieejamu informācijas sabiedrību. Mērķis ir nodrošināt, lai ikviens, kurš to vēlas, informācijas sabiedrībā var līdzdarboties neatkarīgi no individuālajiem vai sociālajiem traucēkļiem. E-integrācija ir neaizstājama sociālā taisnīguma ziņā — tā palīdz zināšanu sabiedrībā nodrošināt vienlīdzību. Tā ir nepieciešama arī ekonomisku apsvērumu dēļ, proti, lai visu informācijas sabiedrības potenciālu izmantotu ražīguma paaugstināšanai un lai samazinātu sociālās un ekonomiskās izstumtības radītās izmaksas. Visbeidzot, integratīva informācijas sabiedrība IST sektoram paver plašas iespējas darboties tirgū.
