ICTP 313: Digital identity, and the issue of trust and of control of individuals’ personal data, with Trevor Forrest of 876 Solutions
Manage episode 431569930 series 2273704
Across the Caribbean region, most countries are embarking on projects to implement a digital ID system. Although there are considerable national benefits to doing so, improving and increasing citizens’ access such as a broad range of services, digital IDs is a complex exercise. We revisit a 2022 interview with Trevor Forrest, of 876 Solutions on the subject, where we discuss:
* Why is it becoming increasingly important to have a digital ID?
* What are the benefits of having a digital ID?
* What can countries do to develop trust in digital ID?
* And what are the potential benefits and implications of heightened surveillance via digital IDs?
