Did you look at the website of UN-GGIM? It is a forum of representatives of the 
Members States or, in case of the Academic Network, of representatives of 
Universities and Research Centers.
It is another level (instututional) with respect to GeoForAll.
The Universities involved in GeoForAll can apply for becoming member of this 
network. The application must be signed by the top level of the University (for 
instance, in my case, as in many others, the Rector) and obviously the 
University has to be involved in projects which support SDGs and the UN-GGIM 
mission.
If it is not clear the difference please ask me again.
Best

Subject: Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] UN-GGIM Academic Network

Can they consider joining GeoForAll, or is there a reason a new network is 
being setup...

Dear All
As probably some of you already know, recently was created, under UN-GGIM, the 
Academic Network.
Here you can see all details
http://unggim.academicnetwork.org
In my opinion it is relevant that all universities and research centers 
contributing to the UN mandate and the SDGs are part of this network.
Please consider, if you have activities in this field, to join the network 
(procedures are described on the website) and to help me with comments and 
suggestions.
The next meeting of the UN-GGIM Academic Network will be in New York (at UN). I 
will attend and therefore I can present our join activities and I can report 
you later the outcomes.
Best regards
Maria
