Digital blood donation and supply platform using national digital ID

African countries face blood shortages due to weak donor records, low voluntary donations, and poor coordination between blood banks and hospitals. Rural communities often struggle to access safe blood during emergencies, maternal care, and chronic disease treatment. Health facilities also find it difficult to quickly identify eligible donors in urgent situations. This use case proposes a digital blood donation and supply platform linked to the national digital ID system. Citizens register through a mobile app, web portal, or USSD channel with biometric or one-time password (OTP)-based authentication. This platform creates a verified donor profile that stores information such as blood type and donation history. Health workers authenticate donors through the national digital ID system and update records in real time. Blood banks and hospitals track blood stock across facilities and coordinate redistribution during shortages. The platform also sends targeted alerts to eligible donors based on blood type, location, and urgency.
