Hello all. As 31 May approaches, we feel it’s necessary to stress how crucial it is for you – our members – to review, consider and complete the RDA Member Survey at  https://www.rd-alliance.org/rda-member-survey-individual-membership-fees.
 
The RDA Financial Sustainability Task Force has been challenged to research and consider financial and business models that may suit our organization. This important survey will allow the task force to take your collective input and use it, as we consider options that will ensure the organisation can continue having value and impact on the data community and beyond.
 
We urge you to provide your feedback on RDA individual membership fees so we can thoroughly assess this and other potential models.  Please spend just 5 minutes to provide your input in this short, anonymous survey. It will be open until 31 May 2021.
 
For those interested in learning more about the Financial Sustainability Task Force activities, status and plans, two Info Share/Q&A Meetings are being held on 20 May and 25 May.  Participation is free and open to all but is subject to pre-registration.  Learn more at https://rd-alliance.org/sustaining-research-data-alliance-virtual-info-share-and-qa-meetings-–-may-2021. 
 
Thank you for doing your part to help determine RDA’s success and sustainability!
