Buonasera nexiane,

parliamo foucaultianamente di tecnologia biopolitica?

Mi scuso se per caso ripeto cose già riportate, ma non trovo
riferimenti in lista (negli ultimi due anni); mi scuso anche per la
lunghezza del messaggio ma non riesco a sintetizzare di più

Un gruppo di aziende private (sponsorizzato da UNHCR) sta cercando di
risolvere il gravissimo affronto ai diritti umani rappresentato
dall'impossibilità di molte persone sfortunate, a partire dai neonati,
di poter /biometricamente certificare/ la propria identità /connessa/ al
proprio stato di vaccinazione (e salute in generale mi pare di capire);
in tutto questo i genitori /mi pare/ possono solo adeguarsi secondo i
proponenti

Il programma «Digital Health ID RFP» è parte integrante dell'iniziativa
ID2020 [2] ed è entrato in fase sperimentale (pilot) in un paio di
regioni del Bangladesh per poi essere esteso - nelle intenzioni dei
promotori - su scala nazionale e poi globale.

Le /features/ progettate per questo sistema sono indicate in questa
pagina:

The program seeks to provide infants with a portable,
biometrically-linked digital ID either at the point of birth
registration or at the time of routine immunization, simultaneously
supporting four shared objectives:

1- Increasing the number of accurate unique identifications in order to:

- Improve birth registration coverage

- Reduce duplication of health IDs and increase the number and accuracy
  of issued health IDs,

- Enhance interoperability in a presently fragmented health system,

- Facilitate re-identification and recovery of personal records, even if
  a paper-based record is lost;

2. Driving improvements in vaccination efficiency, coverage, and equity
in order to:

- Enable portability across geographies,

- Increase the number of fully immunized children;

3. Supporting continuity of care across state and non-state health
systems in order to:

- Generate identity portability across health systems,

- Increase accuracy of personal records and provide visibility of needed
  follow-up care,

- Enhance service delivery by creating improvements in planning,
  reporting, and budgeting,

- Improve health outcomes;

4. Creating a digital ID ecosystem in order to facilitate access to
other services throughout the lifecourse.

- Create consistency and efficiency across federal systems,

- Provide a privacy preserving mechanism prove one’s identity across
  personal and commercial settings;

The program will proceed in four phases from mid-2021 to late 2025. The
proposed program will be phased, beginning with a piloting phase, moving
into a regional scaling phase, and culminating in a national scaling
phase. A key outcome of this program is a replicable model by which
digital ID could be scaled in other country contexts.

Vorrei sottolineare in particolare «Enhance service delivery by creating
improvements in planning, reporting, and budgeting»

La timetable indica che la request for proposal è stata "Vendor awarded"
il 30 Luglio 2021 ma non riesco a trovare da nessuna parte nel sito o
altrove sul web qual'è _esattamente_ la proposta che ha vinto e cosa
esattamente stanno sperimentando in Bangledesh.

L'application package [3] include questi documenti:

* Biometric Research Study and Design

Given the novelty of infant biometrics, ID2020 and a2i (dovrebbe essere
https://a2i.gov.bd/, n.d.r.) will work with infant biometric vendors to
develop a robust research study. The biometrics capture technology will
be solicited through a separate RFP and implemented in parallel with the
work described in this RFP. The awarded identity solution provider
(selected through this RFP) and the biometrics vendor (selected through
a separate RFP) will work together in the spirit of co-creation. As
such, the RFP assumes a multi-vendor relationship, driving forward
advancements in the field of infant biometric research and building on
principles of good identity.

(non voglio farla troppo lunga, il documento contiene molte altre
"features" preoccupanti)

Il documento, nella sezione "PART B - Financial" parla espressamente dei
costi per licenza e in nessuna parte del documento riesco a trovare come
requisito che il software dell'intera infrastruttura debba essere
software libero;  può essere che mi sia sfuggito ma non è /affatto/ un
dettaglio.

Il documento "Appendix-1 Digital Health ID Concept Note.pdf" dice:

The piloting phase will run from May 2020 into late 2020 and will pilot
test the system in two locations: Kapasia and DNCC - Bosilla 1 . The
piloting phase will leverage multiple biometrics vendors in order to
determine fit-for-purpose solution for scale-up. Documentation of the
program will be ongoing throughout all three phases, with a special
emphasis on the piloting phase. The research team will gather data and
generate insights into the economy, efficiency and effectiveness of the
program in realizing its objectives, in order to determine suitability
of scaling the program regionally.

[...] Recently, infant biometric solutions have been proven to be
sensitive enough to allow for authentication of newborn infants
(starting at 6 hours after birth), but these technologies are new and
there is insufficient longitudinal data to establish the necessary
frequency for re-enrollment. By advancing this research, this program
will accelerate the availability of persistent child biometrics,
yielding impact well beyond Bangladesh.

[...] Because lack of a birth certificate can significantly and
negatively impact children’s access to healthcare, schooling, and other
critical rights, there is widespread interest in innovative practices to
increase birth registration coverage.

Identity is also vital to the provision of healthcare services.
Caregivers must know, with a certain degree of accuracy, a patient’s
identity to ensure continuity of care, track services received, and
identify and reach out to individuals in need of care.

[...] While birth registration in many Gavi-eligible countries remains
low, the near ubiquity of the child health card/EPI card creates a
tremendous opportunity. Indeed, in many developing countries, the most
common vital registration is not a birth certificate, but a child health
card.

[...] And finally, creating a unique ID will facilitate access to other
services throughout the lifecourse. For example, the program could be
extended to the education sector, providing a mechanism to identify
out-of-school children and encourage school matriculation. In contrast,
approaches based on simple point-to-point integrations cannot easily be
extended into other sectors,

[...] These digital records of immunization would then help CHWs
identify children defaulting on their vaccines, such that they could
encourage parents to complete the vaccine course.
