## Digital IDs enable essential services for refugees

The Ethiopia Digital ID for Inclusion and Services Project, financed by the World Bank, focuses on extending digital ID services to refugees and their host communities. In partnership with the Government’s Refugees and Returnees Service, the National ID Program, and UNHCR, the Fayda digital ID enables refugees to access essential services like opening bank accounts, enrolling in schools, and registering businesses. Built on the Digital Public Good MOSIP, Fayda is advancing privacy and inclusivity while offering alternative modes of access. In the scale-out of Fayda from 3.5 million to 90 million people, Ethiopia is committed to the Universal DPI Safeguards Framework towards building safe and inclusive societies, giving choice and protection for users.
