The Chilean government website was first launched in late 1996 as Presidencia.cl.[1] By August 2000, the Presidency website moved to GobiernodeChile.cl,[2] while an all-government website was set-up in Gob.cl.[3] It was launched as part of the Chilean government's efforts to modernize public administration and improve access to government services. In 2002, the Government website was redesigned.[4][5]
Over the years, the portal has undergone several updates to enhance its functionality and user experience. In 2016, the website was redesigned to align with the Chilean government's broader digital transformation strategy, which aims to streamline public services and promote digital inclusion.
Governance
