In scenes similar to what you would expect of a dystopian novel, The United Nations want us all to have a biometric identification tag by 2030.

It is part of their Global Goals agenda, and they are already working towards implementing this goal, especially aimed at refugee populations. The UN is working with Accenture on the project that will report information “back to a central database in Geneva”.

According to a report by Find Biometrics, the UN’s ultimate goal is tohave every man, woman and child on the planet to have biometric identification by 2030. From the official website of the World Bank:

Providing legal identity for all (including birth registration) by 2030 is a target shared by the international community as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (target 16.9).
The World Bank Group (WBG) has launched the Identification for Development (ID4D) cross-practice initiative, with the participation of seven GP/CCSAs sharing the same vision and strategic objectives, to help our client countries achieve this goal and with the vision of making everyone count: ensure a unique legal identity and enable digital ID-based services to all.
