# UNDP Model Governance Framework

## What is it?

**Governance frameworks** can be used to refer to a variety of approaches, but generally the term refers to how objectives and goals are met in an ethical and accountable manner. A governance framework can be narrow or broad but it usually includes elements put in place to manage responsibility, risk and accountability of institutions and systems.

## Who is it for?

This is intended primarily as a resource for **UNDP partners**, particularly **government** and **civil society** actors, who seek to develop and advocate for rights-based, inclusive digital identity systems.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://dpisafeguards.gitbook.io/resources-hub/country-impementation/country-implementation-1/toolkits-and-resources/undp-model-governance-framework.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
