ssitizen

SSITIZENS is an innovative initiative designed to leverage secure digital identity and blockchain technology to improve social inclusion and streamline the delivery of public services and social aid. Developed within the European NGI TrustChain framework, the project addresses the dual challenges of ensuring accessibility for vulnerable citizens and increasing the efficiency of administrative processes for public institutions.

At its core, SSITIZENS integrates self-sovereign identity (SSI) solutions with blockchain-based e-money tokens. Using digital identity standards such as EBSI and Alastria ID, the system enables citizens to securely authenticate themselves and receive verifiable credentials. These credentials allow for faster and safer interactions with public institutions, such as applying for social benefits or accessing municipal services.

Additionally, SSITIZENS introduces an e-money token framework to facilitate transparent and efficient disbursement of social aid. Vulnerable citizens can use these tokens to make purchases at participating local merchants, who in turn can redeem the tokens for real money through the City Council. This approach not only ensures traceability and compliance but also supports local economic activity.
