Secure, inclusive and transparent digital IDs
In September 2023, Somalia re-launched its initiative to provide digital identity to 15 million citizens, to protect civil liberties and enable business growth. With one of the most affordable mobile internet rates in Africa, Somalia connects millions of diaspora members, facilitating over $1.2 billion in remittances annually. As part of its commitment to developing safe and inclusive Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), Somalia is working with UNDP on a governance assessment to identify risks and embed safeguards in the system, to ensure future digital ID services are secure, inclusive, and transparent for all of Somalia, including internally displaced persons.
