Seeking DDI Alliance funding requests for the upcoming fiscal year (July 2022-June 2023)

Dear DDI community,

Each year, the DDI Executive Board considers funding requests to support DDI activities.  Anyone may submit a funding request for the Executive Board to consider.  If you have a funding request for the upcoming fiscal year (FY2023, July 2022 through June 2023), please email the request to secretariat [at] ddialliance [dot] org by April 30, 2022.  

Requests should explain the purpose of the request, how it aligns with the Alliance's Strategic Plan, and include an itemized budget for the funding request.  If requests are related to scientific or technical activities, the DDI Scientific Board will evaluate the request from the perspective of the Alliance Scientific Work Plan and provide feedback to the Executive Board.  Incoming budget requests related to scientific or technical activities will be prioritized according to their level of importance, and a reasoning with pros and cons for each evaluation will be made available, for the purpose of clarity and transparency.  Full details about annual budget funding requests are here: https://ddialliance.org/alliance/funding-guidelines-and-request-form.  

The Alliance's membership dues are used to fund these requests.  The budget for the current 2022 fiscal year was finalized in June 2021 and is described in the Executive Board minutes: https://ddialliance.org/sites/default/files/20210609_Executive_Board_minutes.pdf.  The FY2021 financial report is part of the 2021 Annual Meeting materials (see page 62): https://ddialliance.org/sites/default/files/20210622_DDI_Alliance_Meeting_of_Members_Minutes.pdf.  

Feel free to contact me with questions.

 

Sincerely,

Jared
