SDG Digital Investment Framework Resources and current activities

SDG Digital Investment Framework Resources and current activities Jan 2020

Thought Questions ● Have you ever developed or procured a new digital solution only to find later that a similar solution or product already existed? ● Have you been forced to develop a new digital product because two existing systems or platforms were not interoperable? ● Have you struggled to leverage your ICT investments across multiple sectors, projects, partners, and countries? ● Have you found it difficult to prioritize which ICTs to adopt in order to maximize your impact across development objectives?

The SDG Digital Investment Framework and online resources can support actors in making coordinated digital investments and reuse digital solutions across sectors Coordinate digital investment and services to increase return on investment and deliver services across development objectives and sectors. ICT Building Blocks Multiple Workflows / Business Processes Deliver For example, agricultural extension, reproductive health Identity Payments Drive Analytics Sustainable Development Goals Security Achieve …. One or more products can serve as a building block Use cases / development objectives For example, agricultural extension, reproductive health For example, identify & register clients, case management, communicate, and much more 3

Approach to supporting eco-system actors Achieve SDGs through digital transformation Shape Supply Build demand for improved execution of integrated and crosssectoral digital strategies Country Implementation Build Demand Empowering countries to digitally transform leveraging the SDG Digital Investment Framework. Shape the available applications in the market towards a Platform Economy ITU, DIAL and partners are: • building demand by providing guidance for national digital strategies, enterprise architecture and procurement policies based on the SDG Digital Investment Framework • shaping the market by defining essential guidance and artifacts like high priority digital use cases, integration profiles and generic reusable building blocks within the SDG Digital Investment Framework • supporting countries in using the guidance and framework to invest and implement an enterprise architecture and digital services to achieve the SDGs

Coordinate digital systems to support multiple physical systems SDG targets may have different actors and business processes, but can share digital systems 6

Coordinate your digital investments around reusable ICT building blocks to deliver services and programming Example of Rural Advisory Use Case All 4 example use cases utilize the same 5 ICT building blocks Workflow and algorithm • ICT building blocks put in place for one use case, such as a rural advisory service, can be reused to deliver many additional use cases across multiple sectors • Leveraging digital investments in this way enables more costeffective scale-up of digitally supported programs thru elimination of duplicative systems and consolidation of human resources across the public sector 7

Interact with the framework’s catalog online and explore available digital products The following section provides an overview of the Online Catalog and how different users can leverage its resources. https: //registry. dial. community/ Disclaimer: the online tool is in beta and we are currently speaking with users and welcome feedback on current and desired features 8

Online tool supports navigation between the framework layers and digital products Navigate the different associations between layers. Find available products. Online and in real-time. SDG Goals & Targets Use Cases Workflows ICT Building Blocks Candidate Products URL: registry. dial. community 9

View ICT building blocks, view products, interactively navigate between them Products are currently sourced from OSC, Digital Square and UNICEF. ICT Building Blocks Candidate Digital Products 10

Filter and Find Candidate Products Look at a specific building block or across multiple based on what is needed for a use case. The following filter example demonstrates how a user can drill down into a specific use case, i. e. market linkage, and additionally focus on the payments building block. Work in progress. Not connected to the Digital Investment Framework 11

Access detailed product information in a single glance Current information available on each Product Page, possible to add or modify based on needs Basic Product Information included on each Product Page: • URL • Code repository • License • Latest version • Source • Description Relevant questions a user can answer about a product… What is the maturity of this product? What ICT Building blocks does this product fulfill? What SDGs does this product help achieve? What Organizations are using the product? * Is the product sector specific? Is this product Interoperable with others? * * under development and determining value and maintainability based on what data is available in the eco-system 12
