The Ministry of Digital Governance (Greek: Υπουργείο Ψηφιακής Διακυβέρνησης) is a government department of Greece. It was initially formed on 27 June 2011 as the Ministry of Administrative Reform and Electronic Governance (Υπουργείο Διοικητικής Μεταρρύθμισης και Ηλεκτρονικής Διακυβέρνησης). On 27 January 2015, it was merged with the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Public Order and Citizen Protection to form the Ministry of the Interior and Administrative Reorganization (Υπουργείο Εσωτερικών και Διοικητικής Ανασυγκρότησης). It was revived as two distinct ministries on 5 November 2016: the Ministry of Administrative Reorganization (Υπουργείο Διοικητικής Ανασυγκρότησης) and the Ministry of Digital Policy, Telecommunications and Media (Υπουργείο Ψηφιακής Πολιτικής, Τηλεπικοινωνιών και Ενημέρωσης). The former was reabsorbed by the Ministry of the Interior on 9 July 2019, while the latter was renamed the Ministry of Digital Governance. The incumbent minister in the Second Cabinet of Kyriakos Mitsotakis is Demetrius Papastergiou, who also served as Mayor of Trilala.
