WHAT DOES WORKING GROUP MEAN IN ENGLISH?

working group

Working group

A working group is an ad hoc group of subject-matter experts working together to achieve specified goals. The term sometimes refers more specifically to an interdisciplinary collaboration of researchers working on new research activities that would be difficult to develop under traditional funding mechanisms. The lifespan of a working group can last anywhere between a few months and several years. Such groups have the tendency to develop a quasi-permanent existence once the assigned task is accomplished; hence the need to disband the working group once it has achieved its goal. Examples of common goals for working groups include: Parliamentary Working Group ▪ creation of an informational document ▪ creation of a standard ▪ resolution of problems related to a system or network ▪ Continuous improvement ▪ Research Working groups are also referred to as task groups, workgroups, or technical advisory groups.
