Building safe and inclusive DPI

Nigeria is driving technology and innovation, boosting both offline and online commerce for small businesses and services. In 2023, the Federal Ministry of Communication Innovation and Digital Economy spearheaded efforts to build safe and inclusive digital public infrastructure. Partnering with UNICEF and the National Population Commission, Nigeria is working towards registering 15 million unregistered children under five, linking civil registration with digital IDs to improve health outcomes. As Nigeria implements these changes, there is a commitment to adopting Universal DPI Safeguards, ensuring inclusivity and protection as digital infrastructure expands.
