MoU on sharing INDIA STACK


Focus: GS III: Indian Economy

Why in News?

India and Papua New Guinea have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to share INDIA STACK — a collection of open APIs and digital public goods that aim to facilitate identity, data, and payment services on a large scale.

About Digital Public Infrastructure

Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) is a collection of platforms and systems that enable the delivery of essential services to people, promoting digital inclusion and empowering citizens. It encompasses various components that facilitate the flow of people, money, and information.

India’s DPI Implementation (India Stack):

  • India has been a pioneer in developing a comprehensive DPI ecosystem known as India Stack.
  • India Stack includes three foundational DPI components: digital identity (Aadhaar), real-time fast payment (UPI), and account aggregation built on the Data Empowerment and Protection Architecture (DEPA).
  • DEPA establishes a digital framework that allows users to share their data on their own terms through consent managers, which are third-party entities.
  • This approach ensures privacy, security, and user control over data while facilitating the seamless flow of information.
