The Research Data Center “International Survey Programmes“ provides researchers with data, services, and consultation on a number of important international study series. These study series are under intensive curation by GESIS. They have in common that they cover numerous countries and, quite often, substantial time spans.
At present, the RDC maintains extended services for these survey programmes:
Beyond providing the mere availability of the study data, the services of the RDC focus on reducing the problems that users would usually have due to issues of comparability over space and time.

The services of the RDC currently are available mainly through the standard gateways of the GESIS Data Archive. Documentation is
