The DEIA Wiki <https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DEIA/overview?homepageId=218497230> is used for all collaborative work efforts. This space is available for anyone to view anonymously, however, to add or edit materials, a Confluence account + joining the DEIA group is required. I'm reaching out to provide instructions and to make sure everyone has the necessary access! Gaining access to the DEIA Wiki space requires the completion of a Group Participation Agreement (GPA). If you have not completed it, but wish to do so, please complete the form linked here <https://kantarainitiative.org/gpa-signup/>. If you have already completed the GPA, but have not yet set up an account with Confluence, please follow the instructions linked here <https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GI/pages/1081528/Create+an+accoun…>. *Please note: You must fully activate your account by clicking the link in the confirmation email.* After fully activating your Confluence account, please send me a note requesting access to the DEIA Workspace. If you aren't sure where you are in the process, let me know via reply and I will be happy to help! Feel free to reach out with any additional questions or concerns.

Doodle Poll for setting up bi-weekly Kantara DEIA subcommittee meetings
by Kay Chopard 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

Hi everyone, I have created a Doodle poll to see if certain days work best for you to participate in the DEIA subcommittee calls. We are moving these to a bi-weekly basis. Please use this link to respond as soon as possible so I can get the invitations for March updated and sent out. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/boAo5vze Also, take a look at the Wiki for the DEIA work when you get a chance, https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DEIA/overview?homepageId=218497230. In the left-hand navigation all the way at the bottom, you'll see Wiki workspace pages for us to put in work there for the Terminology and Taxonomy as well as ROI. Please feel free to begin to contribute in that space. Let me know if you have any questions. We look forward to working with you. Kind regards, Kay *Kay Chopard | **Executive Director* *Twitter:* @KantaraNews *LinkedIn:* @KantaraInitiative

Fwd: Interview for Government Technology Magazine
by Kay Chopard 02 Feb '24

02 Feb '24

Hi everyone, I've been asked to do an interview with Government Technology magazine tomorrow on equity and accessibility. I asked for the questions in advance and just got this list late last night. I would appreciate any input from anyone on how to answer some of these. And I'd also like to recommend she talk to some of you. If you would be willing to talk to her please let me know. I suggested already that she speak to Jordan but I'm happy to include others. If anyone would be interested in being part of this interview, I'm happy to include you on the meeting invitation. It's tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM ET. Let me know your ideas, questions, etc. Thank you so much. Kay *Kay Chopard | **Executive Director* *Twitter:* @KantaraNews *LinkedIn:* @KantaraInitiative ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Leslie Aloud <leslie.aloud(a)outlook.com> Date: Tue, Jan 30, 2024 at 11:00 PM Subject: RE: Interview for Government Technology Magazine To: Kay Chopard <kay(a)kantarainitiative.org> Cc: Shannon Quist <soconnell(a)erepublic.com>, Kim White <kwhite(a)erepublic.com > Kay, hope your meeting goes well tomorrow. Looking forward to speaking with you Thursday. If there are any articles you’d like me to read prior to meeting with you, please let me know. Here’s a little more about the article for GovTech Magazine, from the brief I was given. Title: The ID Balancing Act: Accuracy, Equity and Privacy This article will explore how to create digital identities without widening the digital divide and/or opening new data vulnerabilities. It will offer expert opinions on how to ensure equity for low-income or unbanked residents, people with disabilities, residents without access to connectivity and technology, etc. It will also cover important considerations for protecting personally identifiable information, biometric data and other information used to verify identities. Some points to cover: - Examples of equity ideas and approaches that work. (Multiple cities offer municipal ID cards for people who lack traditional driver’s licenses – often homeless residents, undocumented immigrants and other marginalized populations.) - General principles that policymakers and IT leaders should keep in mind. With that in mind here are a few questions I’d like to cover; please suggest others. - If state and local governments move to requiring digital identification to receive services and benefits, how do you think that will affect those in our communities who struggle with identification issues? - Digital identification generally requires a *piece of information* (such as a password), and a way to authenticate the person entering the password (e.g., a code from a phone app or text). How hard is this for some people? - Do you know of any cities that are issuing digital versions of their municipal ID cards? - What should policymakers know about people struggling with issues related to not having commonly accepted forms of identification? - How big a factor is trust/distrust of government in the populations you work with?
