Digital Nations is an international forum
of leading digital governments.

Founded in 2014, the Digital Nations is a voluntary and non-binding network of leading digital governments committed to harnessing the power of digital technology to improve public services. Members collaborate by sharing expertise, accelerating learning, and supporting one another to strengthen digital government capability.

​

Members are represented at three levels of governance:

​

• Ministerial Level – sets strategic direction, endorses shared approaches, and agrees to collective priorities

• Senior Officials Level – provides system stewardship, oversees delivery against Ministerial priorities, and coordinates cross-country collaboration

• Country Lead Level – acts as the operational point of contact in each member country, participates in working groups, and manages national contributions to shared programmes of work

​

Members are connected by core principles, including user-centred design, necessary safeguards, open standards and open source, open markets, open government, digital inclusion and accessibility, digital skills and training, co-creation and experimentation, and sustainability.
