Dear all,
There will be further communication on this via the RDA Europe newsletter but we wanted to share with you a more focused message to highlight the funding opportunities currently provided under the RDA Europe 4.0 umbrella. For any questions please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Open Call for Ambassadors
Deadline 5th December 2018, 17:00 CET – Info: https://grants.rd-alliance.org/OpenCalls/call-ambassadors-i-wave
To support discipline focused activities, the RDA Europe Ambassadors programme offers up to six grants of a maximum of €7,000, targeting recognised domain experts and skilled communicators who can serve as conduits between RDA and organisations, and the wider domain specific communities. By ensuring this 2-way communication, the grants also aim to help discipline experts grow their network and collaborate with like-minded people and organisations, while increasing the impact of their work, professional growth and recognition. RDA Europe is committed to provide successful candidates with both financial and operational support for the Ambassadorial work, and the official acknowledgement of the role taken up and contributions.
If this resonates with you, make sure you join our webinar on the "What, Why and How of the RDA Europe Ambassadors programme" next Tuesday, 27 November 11:00 GMT ( 12:00 CET)
* In the first part of the webinar, Dr Natalie Harrower, director of DRI and RDA EU Ambassador programme co-chair, will provide you with an overview of the programme objectives and benefits, evaluation and selection and financial contribution information.
* For the second part, the RDA Europe team will be available to answer all your questions on eligibility criteria, activities covered, eligible costs and much more.
