This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The initiative consists of an algorithm developed with artificial intelligence that will contact 125 million Brazilians. The calls are stored in a large data center, which will help to anticipate people's names, where they are, if they are a risk group, with whom they live, etc. It is as if it were a consultation, using an artificial voice, which will make a screening.
This service has already been accessed by more than 1 million people. Of this total, 471.6 thousand were evaluated remotely using 136, Chatbot, Application, Active Search and Monitoring services. The Active Search service has already made 424 thousand automatic calls. Among the people evaluated, 89% were considered healthy. Approximately 13,000 people were referred to pre-clinical call centers with doctors, nurses and nursing technicians.
