CRVS ID Legal and Regulatory Review Toolkit

This toolkit provides a structured methodology for reviewing and strengthening the legal framework governing birth and death registration, cause-of-death certification, national ID systems and data protection. Grounded in international standards, it guides governments and legal reviewers in identifying gaps, inconsistencies and barriers within existing laws and regulations.

The toolkit supports countries in modernizing CRVSID systems to improve coverage, accuracy and legal identity access. Strengthened legal foundations ultimately enable better public health data, governance and service delivery.
