Blockchain-Based Mobile App for Digital Identification of Older Adults in Rural Peru: Design and Usability Evaluation Study

Older adults in rural areas of Peru encounter many challenges in accessing critical public services, such as health care, education, and social assistance, due to low levels of digital literacy, limited access to technology, and the lack of formalized, secure ID. This inhibits entry into digital health, education, and social assistance systems and increases their risk of vulnerability and social exclusion.
