Ecosystem Passport

A portable public record of system health.

Identity

What the system is, who stewards it, where it is used, and who it affects.

Evidence

Research, audits, disclosures, datasets, model cards, incidents, and limitations.

Governance

Decision rights, accountability structures, oversight, review cadence, and escalation.

Health

Dimension scores, risk status, unresolved questions, and improvement commitments.

Ecosystem Passport

An Ecosystem Passport is a structured record that helps people understand what an intelligent system is, how it is governed, what evidence supports it, and how healthy it appears over time.

Passports are designed to be useful to the public, not only to experts.

Why Passports Exist

Intelligent systems often move faster than institutional memory. Teams change, models update, vendors shift, and deployment contexts expand.

A passport creates continuity. It records the identity, evidence, governance, and health of a system in a way that can travel across organizations and review cycles.

Passport Structure

Each passport includes identity, evidence, governance, and health sections.

The structure is intentionally modular so future registries, certifications, and assessment tools can build on the same record.

Health Levels

Health levels communicate whether a system is dormant, emergent, viable, or regenerative.

The goal is not to create a trophy. The goal is to help a system improve in public.

Future Vision

Over time, passports can support public registries, procurement rules, certification programs, incident tracking, and shared learning across sectors.

Identity

What the system is, who stewards it, where it is used, and who it affects.

Evidence

Research, audits, disclosures, datasets, model cards, incidents, and limitations.

Governance

Decision rights, accountability structures, oversight, review cadence, and escalation.

Health

Dimension scores, risk status, unresolved questions, and improvement commitments.

Health Levels

A passport should show current status and the path to improvement.

The levels make system health legible without pretending that complex social and ecological judgments can be reduced to a badge alone.

0-24

Dormant

The system has no visible stewardship model or reliable public evidence.

25-49

Emergent

Basic practices exist, but coverage is uneven and difficult to verify.

50-74

Viable

The system meets baseline expectations and has active review loops.

75-100

Regenerative

The system improves human and ecological conditions over time.
