๐จ EXCL: The UK Govt are co-funding technical assistance & continued development of Ukraine's controversial Diia app through the Eurasia Foundation & its 'Transparency and Accountability in Public Administration and Services' (TAPAS). 
TAPAS or 'Transparency & Accountability in Public Administration & Services', is a seven-year, $43 million 'anti-corruption activity' in #Ukraine funded by USAID & UK Aid (2016-2024).

Diia (ะัั) meaning 'action' or ะะตัะถะฐะฒะฐ ั ะฏ (State & Me) was first presented in 2019 & officially launched in early 2020.
Most of its now 130 e-gov services were developed from UK & USAID through the Eurasia Foundation who are also recipients of funding from George Soros' OSF.

In October 2022, a hacker in the now closed 'Breached Forums' claimed to have compromised an undisclosed amount of sensitive data from Diia, containing the email, name, DOB, address & passport numbers of citizens.
Diia continues to be hailed as a model in e-governance with USAID leading the drive to implement 'Diia-like' schemes elsewhere & to 'develop a one-stop-shop app for government services.'
The question is, do you really want something like Diia in your country? We hope not.
