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.
