ONLINE WEBINAR ON ZOOM
REGISTER HERE

Co-hosted by Co-Develop, the Centre for Digital Public Infrastructure and UN Women, this side event will provide insights on efforts to ensure digital public infrastructure (DPI) is gender inclusive and works to provide access to health, justice, education and financial services for women and girls. It will bring together countries and organisations to share their experience of working to transform access to justice and other essential services around the world. UN Women has collaborated with Co-Develop and the Centre for Digital Public Infrastructure and will launch a publication during this event on Making Digital Public Infrastructure Work for Women and Girls.

En partenariat avec @LetsCoDevelop et la Central Bank of Eswatini, nous avons organisé un atelier avec des journalistes de plusieurs pays d’Afrique autour des défis liés à la couverture de thématiques complexes comme les systèmes de paiement instantané (SPI) et l’identification numérique (IPN).

Besoin clé: un engagement continu entre experts et rédactions.

Merci à tous les journalistes et partenaires qui ont contribué au succès de cet atelier.

“DPI is a powerful enabler of opportunity, growth, and jobs.”

As we count down to #GDPIS2025, hear from Sangbu Kim, Digital VP at @WorldBank, on why #DigitalPublicInfrastructure is foundational to inclusive development across the globe.

[Global DPI Summit 2025 @GlobalDPISummit]

Just 4 days to go until #GDPIS25!

As the world heads to #CapeTown, the urgency is clear: #DPI is no longer a vision, it’s being built, tested, and scaled.

From digital IDs to cross-border payments, this is where ideas meet implementation.

How can local innovations evolve into scalable #DPI?
Join us, @LetsCoDevelop, and @KalpaImpact at the #GlobalDPISummit on 5 Nov, 5–6 PM, for an interactive DPI Use Cases workshop exploring the +1 approach and the DPI Use Cases Explorer. Join us at our Booth D03 to learn more!

[Global DPI Summit 2025 @GlobalDPISummit]

Designing payment systems isn’t just about speed or cost; it’s about trade-offs.

At #GDPIS2025, experts from @AfricaNenda & @Princeton will unpack tensions between:
‣ Public vs private infra
‣ Interoperability vs sovereignty
‣ Speed vs reliability

We’re proud to have supported @ChathamHouse’s new paper “The Case for Expanding Digital Public Infrastructure.”

It shows how open, interoperable #DPI — from digital ID to payments and data exchange — can power inclusion, innovation and national sovereignty when grounded in trust, transparency and rights.

As countries invest in digital transformation, this research reminds us that DPI is not just technology — it’s a foundation for fairer, more connected societies.

Understanding #DPI’s role in public health isn’t just potential, it’s execution. As infrastructure embeds into national systems, success needs coordination, governance & trust. DPI should strengthen, not fragment, health ecosystems.

This week saw the launch of the #DPIJournalism Fellowship for Eastern Africa hosted by @LetsCoDevelop & @cipesaug. This inaugural cohort of 20 fellows emerged from a rigorous selection process. They represent 9 countries (🇹🇿🇰🇪🇺🇬🇷🇼🇧���🇪🇹🇸🇴🇸🇸🇨🇩) in the region and who work across online, broadcast, and print platforms. The six month fellowship aims to close that gap by building the capacity of the media to cover #DPI in ways that create awareness and informed public discourse on digital governance.

The true power of Digital Public Infrastructure (#DPI) lies in what it makes possible for everyone. Zambia’s shared health records system, SmartCare Pro, is built on National ID and used across the country.

For 90-year-old Isaac Makonko, this means no paperwork, no waiting. Just care, dignity, and continuity. His health record travels with him, even when he moves.

This is the promise of shared infrastructure. Equity, efficiency, and inclusion.

As anticipation builds for the 2025 Global #DPI Summit in Cape Town, the lessons from 2024 remain more relevant than ever. Last year’s summit set new benchmarks for digital public infrastructure, driving conversations on interoperability, inclusion, and global collaboration. The path forward is shaped by these ongoing insights.

#Digitalpayment systems are fast becoming critical national infrastructure, but who should own and govern them? As more countries digitize their economies, leaving payments entirely in the hands of private actors risks deepening exclusion, limiting innovation, and undermining public trust.

In this timely piece, @sandman_jordan and Jeremy McKey write about why digital payments must be treated as public goods. And how governments can step up to build inclusive, interoperable, and secure systems that serve everyone.
