The journey of an in-country implementer — from becoming aware of the DPI Safeguards initiative, to accessing support, implementing safeguards in their work, and contributing their experiences back to the ecosystem — all takes place here. ## Who this Hub is for An in-country implementer may be one of many stakeholders: {% columns %} {% column %} {% hint style="info" icon="landmark" %} **Public officials** Leading the planning and rollout of a DPI initiative — while managing integration with the larger system, security and privacy, and the system's use and evolution. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" icon="building" %} **Private sector** Personnel collaborating with the public sector on a DPI project, from technology delivery to operations. {% endhint %} {% endcolumn %} {% column %} {% hint style="info" icon="scale-balanced" %} **Civil society** Representatives looking to engage with DPI initiatives and advocate for safety and inclusion. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" icon="globe" %} **Multilateral organizations** Institutions supporting DPI projects with funding, technical assistance, and guidance. {% endhint %} {% endcolumn %} {% endcolumns %} ## Three ways to work with the Hub

Discover

Browse the knowledge repository — guidance to implement DPI with integrity, plus frameworks, playbooks, case studies and toolkits. Start with Find a resource on the Home page, filterable by lifecycle phase and role.

Learn

Query the knowledge base directly: use Ask in the header to get a specific answer drawn from everything in this Hub, with sources.

Share

Contribute experiences back — submit input on the Framework, share your story, or convene your own discussion. See Ecosystem Engagement.

## A worked example {% hint style="success" %} **A civil servant heading a forthcoming digital identity project** wants to understand which assessments to complete before the project moves into design. Using the Hub, they can: 1. **Find case studies** of relevant assessments undertaken in other countries — see [Country Implementation](https://dpisafeguards.gitbook.io/resources-hub/country-impementation) and the implementation map. 2. **Reach practical templates** such as the [ID4D Practitioner's Guide](https://id4d.worldbank.org/guide), which supports in-country assessments for identification systems. 3. **Learn from peers** through networks like [ID4Africa](https://id4africa.com/). 4. **Filter resources** by the phase they are in (conception, design, deployment…), by who they are (government, regulator, technology provider…), and by context — using **Find a resource** on the Home page. {% endhint %} ## How resources are curated The Hub takes a three-pronged approach to content: 1. **Compiling existing resources.** Tools, research and frameworks relevant to safe and inclusive DPI implementation are identified and organised — drawing on credible sources such as established research institutions, recognized organizations, and UN and other multilateral agencies. Content reflecting a diverse range of perspectives, disciplines and geographies is prioritised. 2. **Accepting submissions.** Knowledge resources that enhance understanding of safe and inclusive DPI practice are welcome. To be featured, submissions must come from reputable publishers and undergo verification for accuracy. 3. **Featuring initiative outputs.** Resources developed by the DPI Safeguards Initiative itself — working group insights, country implementation learnings, explainers, case studies, templates and tools — are published here for the community.

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://dpisafeguards.gitbook.io/resources-hub/about/how-to-use-the-hub.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
