Our Collections Matter Self-assessment Tool
What is the OCM Self-assessment Tool?
The OCM Self-assessment Tool is a questionnaire based on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and ICCROM’s Our Collections Matter programme. Each question corresponds to a specific SDG target, and is scored using a simple scoring system. This tool will show you how your work with heritage collections supports the SDGs and where there is untapped potential.
Who is the OCM Self-assessment Tool for?
The self-assessment tool is meant for anyone working within collections-based organizations. The assessment can be completed by an individual or a team at any level within the organization. We recommend that the person (or a person in the team) completing the assessment is familiar with the organization’s policies and functions.
Why take the self-assessment?
The results of the self-assessment will help you to:
- Understand how your current activities are helping to achieve the SDGs.
- Identify gaps where you could contribute to the SDGs more effectively.
- Create an action plan to develop or improve activities to achieve the SDGs more effectively.
- Communicate your work and progress in terms of the SDGs.
