Advocating for responsible use of blockchain technology in digitization and decentralization of identification

A billion people in the world lack legal identification + X millions of others have degraded legal identification such as sub-citizenships, non-citizenships, or alien passports

About Us

Blockchain for Human Rights is an international partnership that advocates responsible use of blockchain-based solutions in identification digitalisation, financial inclusion, governance, and other aspects pertaining to the exercise of proof of identity. It is led by a consortium of organisations involving people impacted by identification deprivation:

Apatride Network, Save My Identity, CoalitionVE, and The Rohingya Project.

Proof of identification is a gateway to accessing human rights. As such, it is a premier human right in itself. Every person deserves recognition of existence and the right to live a dignified life.
