    Meeting objectives
    The aim of the meeting is four-fold: 
    1) Assess strategies for building community engagement and external partnerships to promote RDA’s value for the Sustainable Development Goals
    2) Increase RDA community involvement within the IG
    3) Select representatives active in this work familiar with strategies for forming organizational partnerships within and outside the RDA
    4) Review existing materials developed within the IG to promote adoption of RDA outputs within work surrounding the SDGs
     
    In reflecting on the sessions and feedback throughout the p14, some of the major takeaways and potential next steps on SDG work are as follows:
    –Create adoption/output portfolio for the development sector audience
    Such a portfolio could be a brief summary of RDA-alignment with the SDG work and some educational materials, such as a webinar, describing how RDA outputs could be applicable to social and technical issues surrounding work in the SDGs. We’d also thought featuring testimonials of people working in the SDGs who recognize the RDA’s benefit or have used RDA outputs in past within their work would be beneficial. We’re in contact with members of the RDA summers schools and education for librarians IG who are well-experienced in crafting similar portfolios for targeted audiences, but any guidance you could offer in how such a portfolio could be impactful would be more than welcome.
    –Assess existing RDA groups and partnerships aligned with the development sector and SDGs
    Given the diverse avenues for developing a working group or interest group and some slight disagreement that arose during the session wherein we hoped to define the objectives of this potential IG/WG, we felt it might be helpful to review ongoing activities within the RDA community. We will assess their alignment with the SDGs and select representatives from these activities who might be amenable to discussing the objectives of a potential WG/IG surrounding the SDGs and strategies for forming a partnership with the UN. These representatives may also have previous experience with forming organizational partnerships or may themselves represent a RDA organizational partner.
