TDCC SSH Committees

Committees will form in response to network needs for specific periods of time to focus on strategic and operational challenges in bringing the TDCC SSH programme forward. These committees will be formed, composed, and led by individuals with relevant expertise from across the network.
The shape and scope of the committees is laid out in the Terms of Reference document, linked below and see here for our full governance overview.

Assessment & Selection Committee

The Assessment & Selection (A&S) committee has the remit to assess and select the projects that will be submitted from the SSH under the NWO TDCC open call. The A&S committee members will evaluate project ideas and advise on the prioritisation of which applicants to invite to write a full proposal. In the 2023/2024 Challenge Call, they also provided feedback on the proposals before final submission to NWO.
