Hi in the ops working group we decided to workshop BGIN’s common language and shared understanding async in a thread on discourse.
BGIN’s mission is to create neutral forums for productive discussion, welcoming all stakeholders, documenting a common language to establish shared understanding, standardising the the most fundamental and critical aspects of blockchain technology.
I’ll get us started by writing a list of terms which encompass BGIN’s values we can share with the community to build common language and shared understanding - we can grow this thread from here I feel.
please add your own we can deliberate the concepts if needed 
, here’s a start:
Neutral Forum:
A neutral forum is a setting or platform where participants from diverse backgrounds or with differing viewpoints can discuss issues or make decisions without any bias or influence from any particular group. The purpose is to ensure fairness and impartiality in the discussions and outcomes.
MultiStakeholders:
Multiple parties or groups are involved, each holding a stake or interest in a particular issue or project. This approach is typically used in contexts where decisions affect various sectors, including government, private sector, civil society, and academia, ensuring that all relevant perspectives are considered.
Establish Documentation and Common Language:
The creation of written records and the development of a set of terms and definitions that are agreed upon by all parties involved help ensure clarity, reduce misunderstandings, and facilitate effective communication among diverse groups with different backgrounds or expertise.
Best Practices and Standards Alignment:
This involves identifying, adopting, and aligning with established best practices and standards relevant to a particular field or activity. The goal is to improve efficiency, quality, and outcomes by adhering to recognised methods and criteria that have been proven effective.
Shared Understanding and In-depth Discussion:
Shared understanding is achieved when all participants in a discussion or project mutually recognise the objectives, methods, and issues. In-depth discussion refers to thorough and detailed conversations that explore topics comprehensively to resolve complexities and ensure all viewpoints are considered.
Standards and Best Practices:
Standards are formal guidelines or specifications established by consensus and approved by a recognized body to ensure that materials, products, processes, and services are fit for their purpose. Best practices are methods or techniques generally accepted as superior to alternatives because they produce results superior to those achieved by other means. Together, they guide industry and professional conduct to achieve maximum efficiency and quality.
