🔆What is DPI?
The term Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) is primarily used in two ways:
To describe an approach to addressing socio-economic problems at population scale. This approach combines open technology standards with robust governance frameworks to encourage private and community innovation to address societal scale challenges such as financial inclusion, affordable healthcare, quality education, climate change, access to justice and beyond.
To describe real-world examples of that approach represented by well-designed, population-scale infrastructure that abide by the principles of the DPI approach. Examples include India's digital identity system Aadhaar, Brazil's payment system Pix, Estonia's data-sharing platform X-Road, Singapore’s national digital ID SingPass, Thailand’s instant payment system PromptPay, and Argentina’s Mi Argentina digital services platform.
