Add a section in "About this Resource" on toolkit detail pages for tags. This will pull from the "Innovation Tags" set used by Case Studies. Logged in users will also be able to suggest tags but these will need to be reviewed by administrators before they appear.

Unfortunately, WordPress doesn't have a status for tags, so it won't be possible to store a tag but not publishing it (there's no a "draft" status as the one we have for posts). For this reason, the approval workflow is more complex.

A simple implementation could be to have a simple form for the users to suggest new tags. These suggestions are delivered via email to administrators that will manually add the suggested tags to the toolkit.

A much more complex implementation would be to store the suggestions in a custom table that can be managed by administrators in the WordPress backend. When an administrator approves the suggestion, a script will process it and it will add the tag to the proper toolkit, and at the same time, it will delete the suggestion from the queue.

I think the simple implementation is best at this point. It will allow us to see if is a feature that users actually use before investing more into it. Could the form have an autocomplete function that draws from the list of existing tags as well? If it is an existing tag, users would be able to add it without admin approval. This would reduce duplicates and allow users to help with tag management.

For the sake of completeness, I'd like to recap how this feature is going to be implemented:

In Toolkit detail pages a new section will be added in "About this resource". This section will list all the relevant tags related to the current Toolkit
In the same section, there will be a link "Suggest tags" that will bring the users to a form. This will only be accessible to logged in users.
The form will allow the users to suggest new tags for the Toolkit, either selecting them from all the available tags (with autocompletion) or suggesting completely new tags. The existing tags will be assigned automatically to the toolkit. The new tags will be delivered via e-mail to site administrators that will manually add the suggested tags to the toolkit if they approve the suggestion (no automation on this).
