In many areas of policy there are existing groups that promote harmonisation (such as REFEDS, IGTF, FIM4R, the EGI Security Policy Group, WISE & SCI, etc.), with each of these rooted in its own community, and that at times interwork by means of joint membership. It is the explicit goal of this Task to support the role of these groups and, with the consent of the communities involved, to use them to ease friction along the AAI policy chain in the most cost-effective way. Although having to rely on the formation of global consensus, AARC2 can strongly encourage such consensus to emerge by proactive participation and by having its policy experts participate in these groups at all levels.
