The Design of Inclusive Digital Public Services with an Intersectional Gender Lens

  • What do they suggest to create synergy with GovStack?

  • How can we assist our partners in leveraging GovStack resources in collaboration with their government partners?​

  • How can we best support partners in including female participants, developers, ministers, community members in designing digital services?

Comments

Hani: Need to ensure that GovStack remains relevant in the DPI space and work with the advisory board to better connect with groups progressing in this space

Margus: Important to note that many of the others in the DPI space are working on specific products/implementations so the focus is slightly different. May be helpful to discuss one question more deeply with the Advisory Board rather than multiple questions

Yolanda: Some of these DPI products have already started in the GovStack compliance process. Suggestion that there is too much content to pre-read, a higher level summary could be more helpful

Nora: Initial slides are just for working and will be removed before it is sent out to the Advisory Board

Yolanda: Question about the run-of-show for the meeting. Nora is sharing the agenda

Decisions

Will work to find a specific question to focus on for this board meeting

Collaboration with CDPI

Hani´s email con CPDI

Joint specs for VC&Wallets, Payments

Margus: Interesting opportunity but need to ensure that we have a broad representation of products in these spaces

Nora: Helpful to define, in writing, how this relationship will work

Wes: Seems like a great idea. Need to get clarity on how we should engage and how we can best support in this work. ++ to Margus comments

Hani: My role is to make the connection, Wes/Ramkumar to organize the working group until a coordinator. Will prepare some potential working arrangements, goal to start the working group early 2024.

Margus: Suggest that we reply with “Yes, we are interested” but we need to figure out the broad working group before getting started. Could specifically reach out to those involved with the EU Digital Identity/Wallet

Andrea: Do we share the same principles and CoC with C4DPI?

Information Classification: Document Storing

Information Confidentiality Classification And Tool Usage

GIZ will be reviewing who has access to the various resources in the coming weeks.

Template for Team Update Sharing Nico Lueck

Template Governance Committee Meeting Notes

Changes: Instead of non-defined groups like “GovTest” use Team structure to share recent updates. Each team only once a month.

Decision taken: Teams are split between GC and PC and where to share updates.
If GC is by now opposed to that, new decision needed:
A) All teams report in GC,
B) Some teams report in GC, some in PC
C) All teams report in GC and some second time in PC

Updates on Estonia

Reach out to Wes if there are any questions or concerns. Final read through notes: Final 23Q4 Read Through
