RDA Virtual Plenary 18 - Notification of Acceptance

Dear RDA Secretariat,
Thank you for confirming that the Aligning and Coordinating National PID Strategies session has been accepted. Thank you also for the feedback. We are in touch with the PID IG group and, at the last plenary, gave an update at the PID IG session on the proposed WG and ran a separate BoF. We do feel that we need a separate session again as we are a WG with tasks to work on and this meeting is the first meeting off the group where we'll be formalising plans and encouraging volunteers. We will be in contact with the PID IG co-chairs as we consider our WG to be related. However, the PID IG theme for this plenary is "all about persistence" which is related but very different to what we need to be discussing in our WG.
Thanks,
Christopher

Dear Chairs of the National PID Strategies WG,
The Technical Advisory Board (TAB) has completed its review of session applications for the RDA Virtual Plenary 18 (VP18) and has accepted your application titled Aligning and Coordinating National PID Strategies. Please consider this your official notification of acceptance. Congratulations!
TAB has asked the Secretariat to communicate some suggestions to you for improving your session: TAB would like you to please consider reaching out to the PID Interest Group and merging this session. This would assure similar groups are not addressing the same challenges.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding these suggestions, or prefer to discuss them with TAB, please contact your TAB liaisons, Isabelle Perseil and Rob Quick (copied in this email).
At this time, the Secretariat is scheduling all approved sessions and the draft programme will be published on 24th September. Any requests for changes should be made by 1st October and the final detailed programme with your session time and link to your session page will be published by 8th October 2021 on the RDA website.
For this meeting, Zoom will be used for your session and further information and access details will be provided in due course.
Going forward, please begin planning for your session. As a reminder, there will be some individuals who attend your session who are unfamiliar with your group's work. We encourage you to keep your session page updated with information about your group, your session and opportunities attendees will have to engage with you and others during the session.
Please contact us at ***@***.***-foundation.org, or your TAB liaison (as indicated above), if you have any questions about your session.
Registration for VP18 is now live, please see here for details together with an outline of the registration fees. Please bear in mind that RDA is not in a position to offer free speaker admissions or single-session rates. Registered participants have access to all programme components, including recordings of all meetings.
