What Happened
Cape Verde has officially launched the GOV.CV Portal, a unified digital platform aimed at revolutionizing the interaction between citizens, businesses, and the state. Announced by Prime Minister José Ulisses Correia e Silva, this portal serves as a single entry point for public services, replacing the previously fragmented system of multiple government platforms.
Why It Matters
The GOV.CV Portal is positioned as a cornerstone of Cape Verde’s digital governance agenda. It is designed to enhance trust in public institutions, improve the productivity of public administration, and streamline everyday interactions for citizens and businesses. The portal will enable full interoperability across government systems, ensuring improved security, efficiency, and coordination among public institutions. This initiative is expected to significantly reduce bureaucracy, accelerate service delivery, and increase transparency, allowing users to track their applications and requests in real time.
What’s Next
The rollout of the GOV.CV Portal will be progressive, with public administration services gradually integrated into the platform. The government aims to ultimately host all public services on this portal, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of government operations. Additionally, Cape Verde is preparing for legislative elections in May and presidential elections in July, which may further influence the implementation of this digital initiative.
