The Burkina Faso government recognized the need for confirmation of voter identity. It tasked the Independent National Electoral Commission with leading an effort to implement a tamper-proof national voter registry based on biometric technology. INNOVATRICS worked with its partner Gemalto on delivering a biometric enrollment and deduplication solution for the 2012 election which resulted in the successful enrollment of nearly 4.5 million citizens in just 4 weeks and identification of 45 000 duplicates.
