Valiyeva drew attention to citizen-centric digital solutions such as « myGov, » Digital Document Circulation (DDC), and « digital.bridge, » which not only promote convenience, transparency, and efficiency but also positively impact environmental conservation.

 As part of COP29, a series of events were held to promote international partnerships and resources aimed at advancing climate action in Africa. The Chairperson of the Innovation and Digital Development Agency (IDDA), Inara Valiyeva, delivered a speech at an event hosted at the Africa Pavilion. Highlighting the importance of inter-agency cooperation in the digitalization of public services in Azerbaijan, Valiyeva emphasized her agency’s active role in integrating private-sector digital solutions into public services.

She underscored the potential to share Azerbaijan’s advanced experiences from the past two years with African countries: “Countries from the African continent are interested in our digital government products, and we are ready to engage in experience exchange both in implementing digital solutions and regulating digital transformation mechanisms.”

Valiyeva drew attention to citizen-centric digital solutions such as « myGov, » Digital Document Circulation (DDC), and « digital.bridge, » which not only promote convenience, transparency, and efficiency but also positively impact environmental conservation. For instance, DDC saves approximately 2,000 trees annually, while digital bridge preserves about 10,000 trees each year.
