Stakeholder(s):

Many participants represent national identity federations and many come from National Research and Education Networks ('NRENS').

• TERENA: REFEDS is managed by TERENA, Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association, who provide secretariat support for the group. REFEDS meets twice a year, and manages its work throughout the year via the REFEDS wiki, the REFEDS mailing list and via its working groups.
