infrastructure and management models, will facilitate the introduction of a smart and secure
identity card into the daily lives of the country’s citizens, leading to more trust in their relations
with the State and the private sector and protecting their privacy and the integrity of the
institutions.
In this sense, the RIC project is seen as the result of the technical and managerial maturity
acquired in the years leading up to its inclusion in the government’s public policy. The project’s
objective and management systems were conceived against the background of a global trend
and the requirements of a Brazilian government seeking to safeguard democracy and the rule of
law, security and social equilibrium.
Brazil, a country of continental proportions which encompasses very diverse economic
and cultural realities, has made itself more relevant on the world stage, not just through its
economic potential but also by the adoption of responsible public policies that offer social
inclusion to millions of citizens living below the poverty line. This creates huge opportunities
and challenges that require the adoption of coordinated action to prepare the country for
a changing world. The RIC project slots perfectly into this strategy by strengthening Brazil’s
image in the international arena, and will bring about a paradigm shift in relations between the
Brazilian state and its citizens.
