The Internet Governance Forum (IGF),
convened by the United Nations Secretary-General,
is the global multistakeholder forum
for dialogue on Internet governance issues.
The IGF meets every year and is hosted by different countries. The typical attendance is about 10k. Throughout the year, the IGF engages in intersessional work called Dynamic Coalitions.
The GBA hosts the Blockchain Assurance & Standardization Dynamic Coalition (BAS-DC) that was established to connect, communicate, and collaborate with government leaders and stakeholders to use blockchain technology to improve public services.
The group:
- Meets each month to gather best practice and resources that can be used to support pubic sector adoption of blockchain technology.
- Pilots blockchain solutions to demonstrate the value of the technology in addressing public sector mandates & challenges.
- Manages the programming and hosting of physical/virtual blockchain related content at the annual IGF meeting.
The centerpiece of the DC-BAS is the Blockchain Maturity Model (BMM)
The BMM is a framework to evaluate the trustworthiness of blockchain solutions. It is a comprehensive and detailed structure that provides a roadmap to solution developers while providing confidence to investors, customers, and acquisition officials in blockchain solutions. Solutions that have been assessed by BMM Assessment Partners are publicly posted on a directory of “Trusted Blockchain Solutions” that is showcased by this Dynamic Coalition of the United Nations (UN) Internet Governance Forum (IGF). This Dynamic Coalaion of the UN IGF also informs and guides the BMM development and maintenance.
