Ensuring optimal quality of digitized data
The « e-Fokontany » project is being implemented nationwide by the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Digital Development, Posts, and Telecommunications.
On July 30, Minister Tahina Razafindramalo visited Antanetibe to assess the progress made by the teams responsible for data digitization. Around 400 agents are currently engaged to ensure the success of this presidential initiative. Their mission is to receive the paper registers of the Fokontany and record them in a central digital platform. Additionally, they must verify their conformity with the competent supervisors.
Data cleaning is also carried out by the teams, using metadata from control sources to ensure the integrity of the population information. Besides digitization, these teams prepare the lists for printing on Fokontany booklets with QR codes.
These booklets will be essential for distributing state aid efficiently and transparently. Already, 1.517 million households are benefiting from this new booklet. Minister Razafindramalo encouraged the teams to maintain a steady pace and ensure optimal quality of the digitized data.
