Over the next five years, CRKN will build towards a future where knowledge is accessible to all. This vision for the future is captured in the new strategic plan, along with our updated mission, commitment, and strategic goals that map out the work ahead.
Read the CRKN Strategic Plan 2025-2029 now.
CRKN undertakes strategic planning every three to five years to guide the direction of the organization, build on past accomplishments, and plan for future innovation. This strategic planning process began in fall 2023 and involved a comprehensive consultation phase with the CRKN members. Understanding member needs and priorities, and where the future of knowledge and research is headed in Canada, was core to developing the contents of this new strategic plan.
Among the feedback and what is reflected throughout the strategic plan is the need to continue to serve members, the importance of trusted knowledge and an open and sustainable research ecosystem, and the value of community collaboration.
The CRKN team extends our thanks to everyone who was involved in the development of this plan. These contributions have resulted in a strong strategic direction that will guide CRKN’s priorities from 2025 to 2029.
