Under the agreement, Sierra Leone’s MoCTI will provide strategic leadership, develop policies, and coordinate among government agencies. Bhutan NDI will contribute experience from its national digital identity architecture and provide an open-source identity framework. The SIGN Foundation will be responsible for system design, solution architecture, and technical implementation.
