"Diia" will have a service "eDumka" to connect communities with local authorities

This was reported by the Ministry of Digital Transformation, Ukrinform reports.

"It will no longer be necessary to collect signatures of neighbors on paper and stand in queues with officials for the sake of repairing the road. The government is launching an experimental service "eDumka " on the"Diia"portal. From now on, every resident will be able to influence the life of the community and communicate with local authorities or military administrations completely online, "the report says.

In turn, local authorities with the help of the service will be able to better understand the needs of people, prioritize problem solving according to the level of support, conduct surveys and receive instant feedback.

A key change concerns the approach to determining affiliation. From now on, not only officially registered residents, but all people really connected with the community will be able to influence the decisions. The system will automatically confirm the user's status according to state registers without paper certificates.

Details

As reported, according to the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk, the introduction of electronic voting in the elections in Ukraine in the near future is not promising, since it is currently difficult to ensure simultaneous compliance criteria of democracy, security and trust.

What's next

Experts plan to fully implement the functionality of the service over the next six months. Initially, the tool will be fully operational in Vinnytsia, Volyn, Zaporizhzhia, Ternopil and Kharkiv regions. Other local governments and military administrations may join the initiative voluntarily.
