EPPs that meet the preliminary selection criteria will be invited to participate in interviews the last week of July 2021 to discuss details of their data use needs, infrastructure, data systems, team capacity and availability for the project, and other relevant readiness indicators. The data from this application will be used to shape those conversations and identify where additional information gathering is needed. Readiness interviews will also provide an opportunity for EPP partners to learn about the project in detail to ensure that both Crocus and the partner have sufficient information to commit to a successful partnership. The data you provide as part of this application is considered confidential and private, it will not be shared with any third parties.
