Project Development Objective
PDO Statement
28. The Project Development Objective is to strengthen the Identity Management (“ID-M”) system and government
capacity to deliver services in Selected Sectors.
PDO Level Indicators
29. The main outcome of the project will be to increase access to key public services. The progress towards the PDO
will be measured by the following indicators (the intermediate indicators are outlined in the results framework (section
VIII)):
? PDO 1: Share of population with new identity credential comprising their UIN; and
? PDO 2: Users benefiting from services compliant with new service standards
Project Components
30. The project’s components are strongly interdependent. Component 1 focuses on creating an effective and
secure ID-M system, notably through interoperable civil registry (CR) and national identity (ID) databases. This will
provide the necessary infrastructure for the application of the “once-only” principle, and facilitate the regular
reporting of vital events for demographic and vital statistics purposes29, and strengthen the role of the health sector
to contribute to timely registration of vital events. Component 2 supports the improvement of Government capacity
to streamline and digitalize key services for citizens and businesses, including those that rely on CR and ID databases.
The DGU, created with support from the project (Component 2) will oversee all aspects related to digitalization and
technology in Component 1. This will ensure harmonization of the approach, improving the quality of services
delivered and generating economies of scale. Roll out of services in both components will be accompanied, as
required, by extensive training of central, local and traditional authorities, as well as awareness raising and
communication campaigns30. Change management will also be supported through the Project Management
