A special documentary broadcast on Nigerian National Television on 16th Sept 2020, produced by NIMC. It shares the history of International Identity Day, Nigeria's incredible progress in identity development and an emphasis on ID4Africa's role in this journey towards Identity for All.

We at ID4Africa believe the greatest challenge for identity in Africa right now is achieving inclusion – getting everyone enrolled and onboarded into an identity system so that they are visible and can receive their fair share of benefits and services. This goal has become even more urgent in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic as the public health challenges and economic woes are pressuring governments to deploy social safety nets, health, and labor programs to contain the pandemic and help restart their economies—all requiring inclusive identification of the population. In commemoration of International Identity Day (September 16th) we dedicate this episode of our the LiveCast to dive deeper into this subject with a distinguished panel of experts who allow us to dissect the #inclusionchallenge from A-Z. The session concludes with Calls for ACTION to tackle this problem directly.
