Title
OIDC profile for eduPerson attributes
Description

OpenID Connect (OIDC) offers an Authentication protocol similar to SAML. Many of the participants in REFEDs use the well know eduPERSON and SCHAC schema to express attributes when using SAML
OIDC has a similar ability, with the use of claims. A standard set of claims is defined by OIDC, however this set is not compatible with eduPERSON and SCHAC.

To effectively use OIDC in R&E it would be nice if some guidelines would exist how to deal with this difference.

This activity investigates the best way to deal with the differences between definitions in attributes and claims. Next to participants from REFEDs the activity will try to engage relevant parties including MACE-DIR, SCHAC and OIDC standardisation bodies
