I like the comments about what digital Identity is contributing to (society, economy) and that the end goal of it is to create trust between the RP and Subject (in both directions). I’ve modified the previous statement but have also reworded that sentiment to reflect the building of trust.
To foster ethics and excellence in the practice and profession of the use of digital identity in support of an inclusive digital society.
Alternatively:
A common professional and ethical approach to Digital Identity, which creates trust, at the heart of an inclusive digital society.

I like the direction of Joni's recommendation however I don't really like the list. As well, I personally have a dislike of the word "capabilities". To that end I'd like to propose the following:
To foster ethics and excellence in the practice and profession of the use of digital identity.
I believe that this encompasses both the use of digital identity in products and services as well as aspects that deal with respecting privacy. As well, I believe that it provides a focus on the why of digital identity instead of just digital identity as something unto itself.

Yours is like a nice warm blanked Sarah. I like it =)
Perhaps a shorter cut could be...
"to foster ethics and excellence in the practice and profession of digital identity services business, policy, and technology development"
Advancing the profession of professionals sounds a bit off. :) I do agree with Andrew and Joni's points. How about:
(The ID Pro association exists...)
"to foster ethics and excellence in the practice and profession of digital identity so that services and products leveraging digital identities strengthen society and the global economy"

I like Andrew's suggestion but also wholeheartedly agree with Joni. Does the following incorporate both:
To advance the profession and practices of digital identity professionals in order to enhance economic and societal growth.
I would suggest that this encompasses the delivery of identity-enabled services and products but also accommodates things such as respecting the privacy of individuals which go beyond the delivery of products and services.

Agree with the need for ethical thinking in our domain - though ethics is often not black&white as it’s full of tough dilemma’s and shifts according to societal consensus - which also differs geographically. So as long as we promote ethical thinking and discussion but remain careful with stating consensus on topics we can make sure to be fully inclusive to the global community. To be clear, I’m all in favour for including it!
Hello All,
Typed with a grain for salt as I am late to this thread admittedly.
I would agree that confidence and trust are ultimate goals while being terribly subjective. However, ethics in technology is more and more critical - especially in digital ID services. Is it possible that the statement might benefit from the inclusion of something to indicate ethics as a priority, for example, to support opportunities for societal and economic growth.
2 cents for consideration.
IMHO I believe words like ‘trust’ or ‘confidence’ or too subjective and dependent upon once’s viewpoint (has more marketing power as such) - similar with question 2 I’m in favour for not mentioning what digital identity is actually used for but rather focusing on its use, and the practice and profession surrounding that.
