O8.6 Ensure budgetary allocation for DPI financial sustainability and adequate resourcing
Practice
- Create a DPI financial task force, which oversees long-term funding strategies. This task force should work closely with national treasury departments to secure dedicated budget lines for DPI, similar to India’s approach to its Digital India programme. 
- Explore revenue streams like transaction fees or data services, akin to how Kenya’s M-Pesa sustains itself. 
- Mandate annual financial reviews, with results published publicly, to maintain accountability and secure continued support from stakeholders.
