"By 2030, our goal is to enable access to #digitalidentity for every person on the planet." — 2017 ID2020 Summit

2021: #ID2020 launches #GoodHealthPass Image
#ID2020 is very quiet having published a single video in 10 months - the #GoodHealthPass launch event (Feb 11 2021 w/ 2,452 views). Equally restrained is the Twitter account created Jan 2021, w/ a mere 384 followers - & 12 tweets. ID2020 Twitter is also on hiatus. #Strategy ImageImageImageImage
"Urgency - While standards-development processes typically move slowly, a cross-sector effort is urgently required to bring #goodhealthpass solutions to market in 2021 & to scale globally – with the same urgency applied to #vaccine development."

Statelessness in #Zimbabwe = multidimensional problem: deriving from colonial legacies, regional migratory patterns & inconsistencies + gaps in legal protections. Hence @ZimStats has pledged to include questions in 2022 census to identify stateless persons @unhcr @PopDevUNFPA ImageImageImageImage

1/ Very interesting article about the clash between traditional and government identity in Tanzania. thecitizen.co.tz/magazine/sound…

It highlights many of the problems you will see imposing European Identity systems in very different cultures. Including initiatives like #ID4D
2/ Notice that the traditional identity system like most in Africa is quite dynamic and nuanced.

You see mentions of tribal affiliation, clans, family relationships, and geographical origin. Some people want to disclose these relationships and some don't.
3/ There is a noted frustration in the tone of the government officials who just want people to use the colonially imposed naming system of first-, middle-, and surname that can easily fit into their government registration systems.
