Working Groups (WGs) require more commitment than Interest Groups. Working Groups develop Case Statements that are then reviewed by the RDA Community, TAB, and Council. Review criteria include:

Fit with the overall RDA vision and mission
International membership spanning ideally 3 or more continents
2-4 co-chairs leading the initiative
Measurable outcomes
Outcomes will foster data sharing and/or exchange, and be taken up by the intended community
Proposed work, outcomes /deliverables, and Action Plan described in the Case Statement can be accomplished in 12-18 months
Appropriate scope of the WG
The effort adds value over and above what is currently being done within the community.
