Day 2 | 12 March
How it Works
For Day 2 of MOSIP Connect, we invite you to bring your best ideas, wear casuals, carry your coffee into the room, and
participate in MOSIP’s first
open-learning event.
The day will begin with a combined gathering, where an agenda will be curated by and for the group at large. Once the topics are set for the day, we will break into smaller groups to deep-dive into the selected themes through focussed discussions, workshops, panels, and networking conversations.
The success of an unConference will be made by you – the delegates, participants, and guests at MOSIP Connect.
Active Participation
Participant-Driven Agenda: At the start of the unConference, attendees propose discussion topics, highlighting the themes most relevant to them, which are then grouped into breakout sessions.
Open Forums: All attendees are encouraged to contribute, whether by sharing insights, leading discussions, or posing critical questions.
Collaborative Exchange: Participants should actively listen, engage constructively, and respect diverse perspectives to foster an open, inclusive dialogue.
Facilitation, Not Moderation: Instead of formal moderators, sessions will be led by the session host. The session can have facilitators on-request, who will guide discussions, ensure inclusivity, and keep the conversation aligned with the theme.
Shape the Conversation
Considering the possibility that a blank canvas can feel too unplanned, we are also offering participants the opportunity to think through their ideas and send them to us in advance. A curated list of emerging themes will be available on this page as it develops in the coming weeks, for everyone to peruse ahead of time.
Without setting anything in stone, we hope that this will help trigger ideas and prepare everyone for some possibilities of what will emerge!
Potential themes for sessions, workshops, panels, and discussions at
MOSIP Connect unConference 2025:
Integration, Interoperability, and Standards
Inclusion and Accessibility
Digital Trust and Cyber Security
Use Cases, Impact, and Field Lessons
Trust, Compliance, and Governance
Technology, Innovation, and Emerging Trends
Partnerships, Collaborations, Procurement, and Benchmarking
Learning and Knowledge Sharing
Guidelines for Proposals
- No Product Pitches: Discussions should remain neutral and centered on the digital ID ecosystem, policy, interoperability, governance, and innovation — rather than specific products or vendors.
- Flexible Session Styles:
- Workshops & Presentations (Non-Product-Specific): Interactive sessions on methodologies, case studies, or policy approaches.
- Roundtable Discussions: Informal yet structured conversations around key themes.
- Lightning Talks: Short, participant-led presentations to introduce new ideas or challenges.
- Open Q&A Forums: Peer-to-peer knowledge-sharing and problem-solving.
