2024 DEIA Survey

Jordan/Group

Additional questions from Eric:

Equity in technologies offered?

Equity in data sources?

(Peter to add to draft)

Additional questions from Geraldine related to the framing:

  • Is a demographic less or more comfortable with digital identity service, application?

  • Does the age of participant tell us about how likely they are to use an identity service,
    application?

  • Are there exceptions to AODA compliance requirements because using them, can identify a
    User’s age, gender, etc? Is it important to find out, how much is invested in DEIA?
    o Does a lot of money mean dedication?
    o Is there a correlation between how much is invested to degree of DEIA service
    offerability?

  • Other questions related to specific questions to ask RE: compliance, financials

  • Jordan: Typically follow the money to see change, can possibly draw a correlation with investments made and determining if DEIA work is a priority

    • Gray: Lining this up with Q11 will provide an interesting comparison

  • Jordan: Do we need to incorporate any demographic Qs into this next iteration?

  • Peter: Use cases may be more useful.

  • Follow-up to “geographic focus”: Opportunity to get an additional nuance related to populations (priority pushed by government, cultural norm, pushed by people in area)

    • Peter: include free-from/open text to clarify as needed

    • follow-up (What’s the driver for the region?)

  • Investment: Be more specific?

    • Asking for too many details could lead to survey taking fatigue

  • DEIA Challenges (open text)--box it up? This is where struggles with measurement are discussed, etc.

  • Peter-thinking broadly-What are the impediments?

  • Goal is to confirm questions by next meeting (Aug 13), release by September (Identity Week American mid Sept)

Criteria for Assessing Efficacy 

Jordan

Appreciates feedback from last week, anything to add?

Review comments on Wiki page (click edit to view)

Add items/comments/tweaks by next call (Aug 13), then move forward with formalizing a draft to socialize with other groups. Goal would be to treat these as Kantara recommendations.
