The People's Majlis launched the Maldives' first Electronic Petition System, a fully digital petition process verified through the national digital identification mechanism eFaas, developed with UNDP and supported by the UK and Australia. The policy recommendations were integrated into the Standing Orders of the People's Majlis, which came into force on the day of the launch.

The introduction of the e-petitions system marks a significant milestone in the digitalisation of democratic participation, serving as a vital bridge between citizens and the Parliament
This is a bold step towards making policymaking more accessible to all Maldivians.

The United Kingdom is proud to support the People's Majlis in strengthening democratic participation, together with Australia and UNDP Maldives.
