Digital ID Coach

PDEC’s mission:

There are different efforts + projects. As a consequence, there are also different local perspectives.
PDEC’s desire is not to build any concrete things (trust frameworks, technology, etc), but:

• to coordinate existing efforts, and help finding each other
• to follow, track and educate about existing efforts and different views
• to facilitate dialogue between the actors
• to support new startups/initiatives to realize the vision
• to bring together sociologists, technologists, lawyers, etc. working on personal data
• to include people who are new to the circle but doing related work

Some concrete topics during the session:

• multi-jurisdiction issues
• multi-disciplinary groups with interdisciplinary focus
• defining the new business layer (not just legal layer)
• common elements of a trust framework
• technologists (want to push things forward?) + lawyers (want to push things back?) need to work together!
• how do we represent individuals?
• legal practice becomes law
• role of regulation (managing risk)
• look at existing regulator models for telecom + postal interop
• what is institutionally required for certain services + systems
• what can individuals do? where are groups + capital required and where are they not required?
• relationsip of IdPs to each other and to nation-states who set policies
