UNHCR
(United Nations)
UNHCR
• The UN lacked insight into the movement of refugees between camps. Identity and rations fraud were major challenges.
• UNHCR’s Identity Management System uses WCC ELISE ID Platform with integrated biographical data and biometrics.
• UNHCR can now monitor refugee migration, and refugee families are reunited more quickly. ID and food ration card fraud has decreased significantly.
Immigration Services
(Netherlands)
Immigration Services
• The Dutch Immigration Service used a new Case Management System, but end users found it difficult to perform searches.
• WCC ELISE ID Platform and multi-cultural name matching were easily integrated within the Case Management System to improve search functionality.
• Users were then able to find cases easily, within just a few minutes. WCC ELISE ID Platform also prevented duplication of cases in the database.
