In a logic of digitizing and centralizing everything, the Ukrainian government launched in 2020 an application called Diia which brings together identity card, passport, license, vaccination record, registrations, insurance, health reimbursements, social benefits, and more of millions of Ukraine residents.
Such a model is only known so far in China with the famous social credit.
Ukraine is the champion of digital identity with the Diia app
As you all know here, governments want to move towards digitization of everyday life by bringing together almost all services on your telephone. While the European Union had announced a test to digitize the vaccination record, wallet and identities in 2018, Ukraine was very quick to react, deploying the Diia application already two years ago. Since then, the platform has continued to grow.
Ukrainians can download Diia and store a whole lot of official information, in order to easily carry out most of the administrative procedures (from tax paying to identity paper renewal, fine payments and social benefits recovery, among others).
With COVID-19, the government has announced that the payment of benefits will be conditional on the presence of a vaccination certificate on the app. When reality catches up with Orwell…
At the start of 2021, the ‘control’ app had already claimed more than 4.5 million active users. As of the end of 2021, more than 12 million Ukrainians were using the Diia application, showing an almost five-fold increase compared to the end of 2020 (2.5 million users).
