Services include: i) tools to make international collaboration efficient (Facilitation of a RDA Working Group creation and operation), ii) tools to bring outputs to international discussions (Facilitation and communication services of a RDA Working Group) and iii) tools to locate global partners (Engagement activity together with landscape analysis). The service framework is designed to help streamline the processes of finding and engaging international partners in a structured way and creating additional sustainability of the results via facilitating community uptake.

    Who can use the result

    Current and upcoming RDA Working groups, specifically ones created together with EOSC-related projects.

    Timeline

    The current service and result can be used until 31 December 2025. The service description and design, depending on sustainability discussions and solutions within RDA, can potentially lead to them also becoming available as part of RDA service provision beyond the lifetime project.
