What is specific in Europe
10
- Many different languages
- Heterogeneous cultural and historical background
- No common organisational structure
- Diversity of standards and formats
- People are very different in temperament and
character which makes agreements and proceedures difficult.

– At the end of 2015 the RDA Board and the RSC decided to change their organisational structure. – Continents have to organise themselves as a single unit and have to send Regional Representatives to the RDA committees. – For Europe EURIG has been targeted for this task. – But EURIG has been only an INTEREST Group. – So what to do?
SLIDE 13
13 | Renate Behrens | RDA in Europe | October 2019
– EURIG accepted the challenge and started a revision process immediately. – At the EURIG annual meeting in May 2016, EURIG changed it‘s
- rganisational structure from an interest group to a decision-
making body. – The EURIG Cooperation Agreement was updated – An Interim Europe Region Representative to the RSC was nominated.
