TAP Network Partner Update

This form is intended to collect updated information from all current TAP Network Partners, including on TAP Partners' basic information, and sharing of your organization's most recent and updated work and ambitions to advance SDG16+ and SDG accountability. 

Through this mandatory update, we are asking all current TAP Network Members to fill out a form to remain as a TAP Network Partner by no later than Monday, 24 May 2021.

Sharing this updated information will be critically important for the TAP Network's work to build out a comprehensive TAP Partners Platform, which will facilitate and enhance engagement amongst TAP Partners going forward. It will also be important for highlighting and showcasing the work of TAP Partner organizations overall, and will contribute significantly to TAP's ongoing "Storytelling" efforts to showcase the great work of TAP organizations going forward. As we develop this updated TAP Partner Platform, each of TAP Partner will have their own TAP Partner page, where organizations can showcase various opportunities for engagement and partnership, as well as key resources or advocacy materials that you’d like to share with fellow Partners or an external audience. Therefore, we hope that you’ll see this TAP Partner Update as a useful opportunity for you to fully update and showcase your organization’s work going forward.

In addition to our ongoing work to improve platforms and opportunities that are exclusive only to TAP Network Partners, a friendly reminder that retaining your status as a TAP Partner will include the following benefits:

- Exclusive access to TAP funding for national and regional workshops, as available
- Exclusive access to TAP funding for travel, as available
- Exclusive access to voting on TAP Steering Committee and other ballots
- Leadership opportunities, such as “focal points”, “advisory groups”, or any other TAP Coordination or Engagement mechanisms
- Your organization’s work and commitments will be showcased on TAP’s website and on any future information sharing platforms
- Ability to contribute to any TAP resources developed
- Opportunity for your organization to be showcased in TAP’s ongoing “Storytelling” efforts
- Your organization can use TAP “partner” status for promotion/outreach

What kinds of commitments are expected of TAP Network Partners?
TAP Network Partners are expected to outline their commitment to implementing SDG16 or towards accountability for the 2030 Agenda more broadly. These commitments should be clear and succinct and have very clear objectives and outputs/deliverables. The more specific organizations can be when submitting commitments, the stronger the commitment and subsequent follow-up will be. Since these commitments will be showcased publicly, it is important to highlight the great work and realistic but lofty ambitions of your organization, and to clearly outline how you will go about implementing this commitment. Again, this commitment should outline your organization’s commitment to SDG16 and the 2030 Agenda itself, and not your work with the TAP Network more specifically. It is also important for these commitments to fit the S.M.A.R.T. criteria: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound.

(This should be a succinct overview of your overall commitment that can be easily communicated.) (Required.)

(This should provide any details you'd like to include about your commitment, including your objectives, work plan, timeline or even a theory of change. This will be an important opportunity to share and showcase your work with your fellow partners and external stakeholders) (Required.)
18.How does the work of your organization relate to the TAP Network's work related to SDG16+ and Accountability for the 2030 Agenda? Please be as specific as possible, and outline how you see your organization contributing to TAP's work on these areas, where possible.(Required.)

I also understand that I am expected to report on progress my organization has made towards these commitments regularly, and provide updates as necessary. (Required.)
