Partners and ecosystem
An open infrastructure, built with the Angolan ecosystem.
The IDNA does not emerge in isolation. It connects with the national digital-transition programmes already under way and opens up to an ecosystem of partners — institutions, companies, developers, civil society and technical partners. The State owns the system and decides; and it is this sovereignty that gives it the freedom to open up, to entrust and to frame each collaboration on its own terms.
National programmes the IDNA connects with
The IDNA was designed as a complementary piece of existing public initiatives — not as an alternative to them.
PADA — Angola Digital Acceleration
A modernisation programme supported by the World Bank. The IDNA can provide an identity layer serving this acceleration.
GOVERNO.AO 27
The State's digital-transition agenda. The IDNA fits within its digital public-services objectives.
Simplifica
A red-tape reduction programme. A single digital identity can greatly simplify access to services.
National Interoperability Platform
The technical layer linking institutions. The IDNA can connect to it as the citizen's layer.
Presidential Decree 11/26 — Digital Signature
The recent legal framework for electronic signatures, which the IDNA fits into naturally.
