RE: [PROPOSED WORK ITEM] Vaccination Certificate Vocabulary

I thought Manu was participating, and I’m certain Kaliya is. There are also several other “VC advocates” in the group too.

Best regards,
Jim

+1 Wayne.

I'd love to have WHO come present to use so we don't re-invent the wheel here. If you can put me in touch with the appropriate folks, I'll take it from there and get them on our calendar.

Cheers,

-Heather

Hi Steve, thanks for your concerns.

In my opinion, this isn't necessarily an alternative or competitive work item. It has a lot of collaborative potential with global organizations, the same way that the Traceability Vocab is congruent with much of GS1's efforts.

Many of the same folks familiar with the SMART Health Card framework (https://smarthealth.cards/) and similar global multi-partisan initiatives are already participants in this community group. I see this as an opportunity to do work in the open under IPR protection so we can surface a diversity of perspectives instead leaving it to a single expert panel, who, to my knowledge, remain unnamed and without publicized release timelines.

We are also fortunate to have some of the foremost JSON-LD experts here, which could endow significant interoperability benefits to the vocabulary definitions. Vocabularies are core building blocks for any of these efforts, and I am grateful we have the interest and dedication from organizations like WHO to think about other layers of issues including cross-jurisdictional governance, legality, and liabilities. I imagine a lot of the experts at WHO could even find these definitions useful in their own work or would otherwise be willing to give us feedback here in the open, seeing as how their group only formed this quarter.

If you have information on WHO's timelines and ways for members of the public to get involved in the design, I think folks here would appreciate if you shared.

Best,
- Wayne

There’s already a WHO initiative to do exactly this.  And I’d imagine whatever WHO publishes as a VC standard to replace the yellow card will be the de-facto (and of course de-jure) world standard

Why would you work on an alternative ?

Hi All,

I'd like to propose a new work item that formally defines a vocabulary for issuing Vaccination Certificates in the form of Verifiable Credentials.
