This webinar will examine ways to accelerate the development of digital public infrastructure to improve public service delivery and transform lives.

Digital public infrastructure (DPI) is driving a new era of public service delivery and transforming lives. Beyond digital ID, payments, and data exchange, DPI is also an approach that ensures digital transformation is inclusive, accessible, and sustainable for all.

This webinar aims to open a dialogue on how the initiative can support governments in accelerating DPI development and provide a space to share experiences and best practices from across the region and beyond. It will feature lessons from Sri Lanka and Kazakhstan, approaches to overcoming adoption challenges, and strategies to scale DPI.  

The virtual event will also share information about the upcoming 50-in-5 Awards which will be celebrated at the 81st session of the UN General Assembly in New York in September 2026.
