dc.description.abstract	Blockchain technology is an emerging and revolutionary technology nowadays. This emerging technology is applied in different studies to resolve problems and challenges like vital event record management. The Vital event record is the continuous, permanent record of the happening and characteristics of the vital event like the birth, marriage, and death events of an individual. The record of the event needs technology that records the event permanently that achieve decentralization and distribution. As the result of the development in digital technologies falsified copies of vital events records have become a big issue in developing countries like Ethiopia. This falsification of the document in the governmental and private organizations is a critical challenge in Ethiopia. To solve such problems and challenges the present vital event record to convert to other digital technology that improves the integrity, availability and security issues of the vital event record. Therefore, in this thesis, we proposed a vital event record management framework using blockchain technology. Design science methodology is used as the research methodology. To design and develop the framework for vital event record management we used the Hyperledger Fabric blockchain technology. The proposed framework for the study area is evaluated by using user acceptance levels and prototypes. The result of the finding will be a fundamental inference for policymakers, researchers, and students in the area.	en_US
