East African leaders are meeting in Arusha, Tanzania, to discuss digital systems that help people across borders. The three-day meeting aims to check progress on digital ID cards, payment methods, and information sharing between countries. Officials want to close gaps where some people cannot use digital services because they lack internet access or proper equipment. Representatives from different countries will present their digital project achievements since last August. They hope to create plans that work for everyone involved.

Germany helps support this meeting through their cooperation agency as countries try to build trust in these new systems. The East African Community Secretary General, Veronica Nduva, called digital systems the roads of modern economies that everyone should be able to use. She praised Tanzania, Rwanda, and Somalia for making good progress with payment systems that work across country lines. Private companies join government officials at the meeting to share ideas about making digital services better. The group will meet through May 16 to create steps for future work together.
