Kersti Eesmaa, an Estonian ambassador, gave an insight on why Estonia leads the way in digital identity. Kersti has been instrumental in promoting and refining Estonia´s digital government, and her insights offer valuable lessons for other countries, including Australia. 🙌 Key takeaways: 📌 Comprehensive Digital Ecosystem: Estonia's digital ID system is integral to everyday life, allowing citizens to use their e-ID for a wide range of services, from voting to signing contracts. 📌 Mandatory but Flexible: While every Estonian is issued a digital ID at birth, the use of digital services is optional. 📌 Security and Crisis Management: Estonia's experience with cyber attacks and the government's swift and open response to these challenges increased public trust in the digital system. 📌 Collaborative Leadership: Successful digital identity implementation requires strong leadership and cooperation between public and private sectors. Estonia’s model highlights the importance of coordinated efforts across different levels of the government. Read more 👇 https://lnkd.in/gPwUbQdD
