Book excerpt: The 2022 edition of the State-of-Play report on Digital Public Administration and Interoperability provides the reader with a run-through of the latest digital initiatives put in place between 2020 and 2022 in 35 European countries , as well as undertaken at European and global level, with the goal to further digitalise public administrations and services and ensure their interoperability. In addition, an overview of the current state-of-play of interoperability across Europe is provided by the reader, based on an overview of the level of implementation of the European Interoperability Framework (EIF) in 36 European countries in 2021. This dedicated chapter on interoperability will also provide the readers with comparisons between the countries' performances in 2020 and 2021, so as to find correlations and commonalities but also potential areas of improvement to help European countries in further implementing the EIF. The report demonstrates that European countries continue their path towards an increasingly digitalised public administration, a trend already perceived in the last few years and further accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a clear shift of mindset is observed regarding the use of digital tools by public administrations and the conception of digital public services, where user-centricity, usability and interoperability have emerged as key priorities when (re-)designing new or existing services. In this context, the European Commission has demonstrated a strong dedication to promote the uptake of digital solutions by its Member States, supporting the development of cross-border digital services in the EU and acting as an innovative driving force for digital transformation. To illustrate it, the report provides an overview of the state-ofplay of the main initiatives around digital public administration and interoperability at the EU level, including EU funding programmes and digital-related political and legislative initiatives put forward by the European Commission in the period 2020-2022 to fuel the digital transformation of the public sector across Europe. Lastly, this year's edition of the report provides insights on the most recent global initiatives developed since 2020 by various international organisations, such as the United Nations and the World Bank, to support public administrations around the globe on their path towards interoperability and digitalisation.
