Margins delivers first GAM ID – President Barrow is inaugural recipient

Held under the theme, "One Identity, One Nation: Advancing Inclusion, Security, and Digital Transformation in The Gambia," the initiative establishes, for the first time in the country's history, a single trusted digital identity platform that will underpin governance, national security, financial inclusion, digital public services and long-term economic development.

The Gambia has written a new chapter in Africa's digital transformation story by going live with its first-ever unified National Identity Management System (GAM ID) through a landmark Public-Private Partnership (PPP) with Ghana's home-grown technology company, Margins ID Group, in what has been hailed as a powerful demonstration of Africa building solutions for Africa.

Beyond issuing a modern identity card, GAM ID establishes the trusted digital infrastructure upon which The Gambia's future digital government, secure financial services, connected public institutions and digital economy will be built.
