Jun is well known for widespread usage of internet technology, both by residents and the municipal government. In December 1999, the municipality announced the right of every citizen to have Internet in their home. In 2001, the town had its first interactive municipal council, leading then-head of the European Commission, Romano Prodi, to call Jun the birthplace of interactive democracy.[1]
Presently, the local government of Jun is working towards future modernization and free software access for Jun residents. The city council is promoting the use of social media for many activities to make the communication between the local government and the citizens easier, with particular emphasis on the use of Twitter.[2] [3] [4]
