Our research project aims to understand how Karen refugees in Thailand experience digital identity systems and to inform the development of digital identity systems which are fair for the people who use them.
This is an 18-month ethnographic study based in a camp in Northern Thailand. Through interviews with refugees and key stakeholders, participant observation and participatory methods, we assess implications of existing systems. Through our participatory approach, our participants express what an ideal identification system would look like from their point of view. Ultimately, our research aims to reimagine what a fair identification system might look like.
