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 General Authority for Awqaf has lunched Waqfy portal during COVID-19 to activate community participation in support of endowments and the non-profit sector and provide secure electronic payment options via the platform. It enables the donor to fully or partially contribute to projects. Many of these projects are to help during COVID-19 such as “Help them to breath” which is a project to help people with chest diseases by providing them with oxygen generators in their homes. Participation in these projects can be requested easily through the Waqfy portal.
