About RDA TIGER
RDA TIGER is a new project tasked with providing support services for the Working Groups (WGs) within the Research Data Alliance.
New! Open Call for RDA Support Services
This open call is seeking applications from existing or potential Research Data Alliance (RDA) Working Groups (WGs) that wish to receive RDA TIGER support for their WG activities. The call will be continuously open and has four selection rounds per year. Each round has a deadline by which the applications have to be submitted in order to be reviewed.
The continuously open call for WG support has been expanded to include additional support mechanisms. Please read below for information about new opportunities!
The deadline for applications for this selection round is Thursday 30 November 2023, 16:00 CEST.
All RDA WGs or potential RDA WGs that apply to receive support should meet the eligibility criteria set out below and will be evaluated by a selection committee. This includes existing WGs that have established processes and membership, as well as new WGs requiring support to kickstart their activity. The RDA WGs supported have to run according to the RDA WG processes, procedures and policies.
RDA TIGER Services for supported RDA WGs
The RDA TIGER project team offer Facilitation, Communications Output Support and Landscape and Engagement Services. Find out more about the Services and read the service descriptions.
RDA TIGER support through the WG lifecycle
The project will provide services according to the stage of each WG throughout its lifecycle of eighteen months, from inception to completion:
-
Upcoming Working Groups
The project can provide support in FACILITATING the forming the WG by finding WG members in coordination with the new active global engagement and LANDSCAPING analysis service, by helping to COMMUNICATE WG ideas widely and via offering practical help with case statement preparation and output definition.
RDA TIGER Services per Work Package and Working Group stage
-
Ongoing Working Groups
For ongoing WGs, the project will provide facilitation and ORGANISATION services, leading to reduced workload on the WG members and chairs, who can then in turn concentrate on providing their expertise. Other services include communication, writing and editing, and output development services, as well as providing THIRD PARTY GRANTS grants for output testing, development, travel and even external consultancy services.
-
Ending/Finished Working Groups
For ending and finished WGs, the RDA TIGER will provide help on last-mile development and writing, output finalisation and adoption, guidance on potential standardisation pathways and help with the (upcoming) RDA Maintenance Facility maintained by DANS.

Get in touch
The RDA TIGER will support WGs based on application and transparent selection process. The basic support includes the facilitation, communication, output support and landscape analysis services, additional direct support (e.g. travel grants, 3rd party grants) are provided by separate application process. Details of these processes and application information will be provided on this page in the 2nd quarter of 2023
The RDA TIGER team has been hard at work since the kick-off meeting preparing and defining the services offered to the WGs.
The first year of the project will focus on onboarding and piloting a number of pre-approved WGs. Following that, the RDA Community will be able to leverage RDA TIGER resources and services directly. The support services on offer will be provided following successful application.
In the meantime, if you are interested in finding out more about the upcoming services, please contact the RDA TIGER team:
