She introduced the #OSIA reference #opensource implementation, which is based on #openstandards and developed in collaboration with UNDP and the Nordic Institute for Interoperability Solutions (NIIS). #OSIA connects the #identity #buildingblocks of #digitalgovernment, a #collaboration between industry and government to achieve SDG 16.9, ensuring Identity for all, including birth registration. This is especially timely, coinciding with the launch of the #OSEE partnership between the International Telecommunication Union, the European Commission INTPA, and UNDP to facilitate the development of #digitalpublicinfrastructure. #opengovernance #community Olivier Heurtier Chahine Hamila Petteri Kivimäki

SIDI Hub Announces Roadmap to Drive Cross-Border Interoperability for Digital Identity. “Interoperability is crucial for a fair and inclusive digital society.

On 28th November, at TRUSTECH Event, the inaugural meeting of the #SIDIHub brought together 120 digital identity experts from governments, multilaterals, standard organizations, and non-profits to define what is needed to achieve global interoperability for digital identity. 🌍We were pleased to have the active participation of representatives from the OECD, several UN agencies, the World Bank, and 22 countries from across the globe, among the many participating organizations. We had the honour to have a presentation for the opening of the SIDI Hub inaugural summit from Tristan Fulchiron, Digital Advisor to the French Minister of Interior Gerald Darmanin and Philippe Latombe, French Deputy, Member of the Commission of Laws and VP Economy, Security and Digital Sovereignty Group of the French Parliament. 🙏 A big thank you to all those who attended the summit. Your active participation and insightful contributions greatly contributed to the success of the meeting! 90% of participants expressed their desire to continue the work in 2024, while a large majority agreed that a consensus view is necessary to understand what digital identity interoperability can achieve (GDP impact, inclusion). They also agreed to champion cross-border use cases, create a mapping of trust frameworks across jurisdictions, establish minimum requirements for digital identity interoperability, identify which organizations are contributing specific capabilities to digital identity infrastructure, and define global shared metrics to measure success. This consensus view underscores the need to strengthen digital identity interoperability efforts worldwide and highlights the willingness of all sectors to catalyse global action now for an interoperable digital future for all. Aimé Mukuma "The Identity is the future” Mark Verstege Vertege “A fantastic start to solving a difficult problem with incredible human value.
