The Dûnîa platform digitises ministry operations for the first time, supporting economic governance, development planning and international partnerships.
The Central African Republic has taken a major step toward modernising its public administration with the launch of the Dûnîa digital platform. The initiative marks the first time an entire ministry has been fully digitised, covering both internal processes and collaboration with external partners.
The platform was developed on behalf of the Ministry of Economy, Planning and International Cooperation (MEPCI) and represents a structural shift in the governance of economic policy, development planning and international partnerships.
The official launch of the platform took place on February 23, 2026 under the patronage of the President of the Republic, Head of State, Professor Faustin Archange Touadera, and forms part of the National Development Plan (NDP-2024-2028).
Professor Richard Filakota, Minister of Economy, Planning and International Cooperation, said: “Dûnîa is much more than just an e-government project. It is an integrated, modular and scalable digital platform that maps all of the ministry’s administrative, operational and strategic processes. A strategic lever for development and digitalisation – and an important element of our Ambition28 programme.”
Through the platform, all HR and budget management processes within the Ministry of Economy are automated. Document management is handled entirely electronically, project management is digitally centralised, macroeconomic analyses are modelled based on data and international funding is tracked transparently.
The platform is built on an open-source microservices architecture with high resiliency (99.8% availability), encrypted data structure and API interoperability. This infrastructure enables the ministry to modernise administrative processes while improving transparency, efficiency and collaboration across government operations.
