With the support of the AfricaConnect3 project (co-funded by the European Commission), WACREN will organise a three-day Trust Identity and Access Management Roadshow for relevant targets within the research and education space in Sierra Leone.
Following successful iterations in Benin, Burkina Faso and Togo, the Roadshow in Freetown is expected to immerse the participants in the fundamentals and modus operandi of the Trust Identity and Access Management framework and platforms offered by WACREN.
Key areas to be discussed:
1. General overview of identity federations
2. Trust & Identity in WACREN - Africa Digital Campus and eduID.africa
3. The eduid.sl pilot - IdP hosting, resource registry. Connecting to WACREN services, enabling new SLREN services.
Who will attend?

- Technical staff responsible for authentication and network security in R&E
Expected Outcomes
At the end of this technical workshop, participants will be familiar with identity management in a federated environment. They will aim to integrate their campus identity management systems into a pilot identity federation for SLREN members.
