Guatemala is on the journey to digitization, but its national digital ID still faces administrative and cultural hurdles. The piece explores Guatemala’s engagement with the UNDP’s Digital Readiness Assessment (DRA).
It aims to accelerate inclusive digital transformation by convening with diverse stakeholders from government, the business world, civil society groups and academics. UNDP led the process in close collaboration with the Presidential Commission on Open and Electronic Government (GAE), and Red Ciudadana, a civil society organization focused on promoting democracy and bringing people closer to public policy participatory processes.
