Ethiopia is progressing with its digital ID project as part of its 2025 Digital Strategy and is seeking increased private-sector participation to ensure its success. The World Bank has expressed its support by providing $350 million to help Ethiopia achieve its goal of delivering secure ID and inclusive digital services to at least 90 million people.
The Digital ID for Inclusion and Services Project aims to enable Ethiopian citizens to access a wide range of public services and economic opportunities through the Fayda digital ID.
