BENGALURU: The International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore (IIITB) announced that a platform - Modular Open Source Identity Project (MOSIP) - an equivalent of India's Aadhaar, developed by the institute, is being rolled out in multiple countries.
The project, like Aadhaar, provides a unique ID card for all citizens. The platform has been given for free by the institute and is currently being used by Philippines and Morocco. Discussions are under way to use it in five other countries, including Sri Lanka and Ethiopia.
MOSIP was showcased alongside UPI, CoWin and other innovations at the India pavilion of Vivatch, Paris, a tech event held recently.
