Digital Public Infrastructure and Services The World Bank Group supports governments in building digital public infrastructure and modern digital services that improve efficiency, strengthen delivery, and enable innovation—creating secure, interoperable platforms for inclusive growth across the public and private sectors. https://www.worldbank.org/ext/en/topic/digital-and-ai/digital-public-infrastructure-and-services Digital services are increasingly essential for modern governance, improving efficiency, strengthening service delivery, and creating opportunities for innovation, inclusion, and job growth. At the heart of this transformation is digital public infrastructure, which refers to foundational systems and platforms that enable secure, trusted digital interactions across society. Examples include digital identification, online payment systems, and secure frameworks for sharing data. These building blocks function much like highways or bridges in the physical world, providing shared platforms that multiple services—both public and private—can use to operate seamlessly, reduce duplication, and scale effectively. © 2026 The World Bank Group,
