Mouhcine Yejjou | Morocco eID Project Manager
DGSN (National police)

I lead complex projects at the DGSN, Morocco's national police force, currently serving as General Controller for the Morocco eID project. Launched in 2017, this initiative spearheads the development of a robust digital identity system for Morocco, built upon the foundation of the national ID card. My work extends beyond the DGSN, actively contributing to Morocco's broader digitalization efforts. I collaborate with various administrations and ministries on projects like e-health (Ministry of Health) and digital signatures. Additionally, I also work closely with the Moroccan and African data protection authorities. Recognizing the importance of digital identity on a global scale, I am also contributing on a continental and international level. I serve as Deputy Ambassador for Morocco in the ID4Africa movement, representing Morocco on the African Union's Identity Experts Group, and collaborating with the Secure Identity Alliance's SIDI Hub initiative. Through these roles, I help develop an interoperability framework for digital identities around the world.
