The creation of Task Forces is subject to Board approval. Participation in Task Forces in voluntary. At least six member organisations must participate for a Task Force to be operational. They have defined objectives. A Task Force operates in principal for a maximum of two years. It will report to the Board after the first year and will deliver its results and conclusions at  the end of the second year.

A Task Force might continue as a Network of experts after completing its Board approved workplan.

When the proposed workplan of a group is less than 1 year, it is often decided to establish an Working Group instead of a Task Force. This type of group can also continue as a Network of Experts after completing is workplan.
