for enabling digital identity credential systems, globally. If we succeed, the recommendations from this paper will trigger a practical roadmap for global digital identity infrastructure development…a roadmap we will expand upon during an interoperability
workshop in Paris the last week of November with numerous several other non-profits.</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue";color:black"> </span></span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
