DCC's support service for JISC MRD programme

JISC has recently released a call for institutions to submit proposals for projects under three separate strands of the Managing Research Data Programme. The total funding available will be approximately £4,600,000.  If you would like to know more about funding strands and relevant deadlines, please see JISC's website.  

To assist institutions to find suitable partners for collaborative bids for the JISC MRD 07/11 call, the Digital Curation Centre (DCC) has established a Partnership Forum. Those looking for partners are asked to provide some basic information about their own contributions and indicate what contributions they are seeking from potential partners. The DCC will track submissions and contact depositors with details about suitable partners for specific area of research and/or innovation. JISC are particularly keen to see partnerships that foster the exchange of expertise and knowledge and amplify the work of the partner institutions. The Partnership Forum also allows bidders to request specific DCC support for this call.

Depositors can choose to make their details openly accessible to all or to share their bid information with the DCC only as a mediating body. To share your information and find out more please visit our website.
