Internet Identity Workshop Charter

Name
Internet Identity Workshop

Purpose
The purpose of the Internet Identity Workshop workig group is to support face to face conversation about Internet-wide digital identity and it's implications. User-centric identity has been a topic of particular interest. We aim to support the whole marketplace, especially individuals contributing their voice in open inclusive conversation.

Principles

 * We support the community of people interested in digital identity coming together and meeting.


 * We use highly participatory processes for our meetings.


 * We partner with other events, organizations and companies to support open meetings around emerging topics in digital identity. The brand we use for these co-produced events is Identity Open Space.


 * Workshops are financially self-sustaining through user fees for event attendence and sponsorships.

Practices
We call together a design committee together from the community to help shape the design of the conference.
