[Nhcoll-l] Connecting Collections workshop series September 2022

[Jutta Buschbom]

*Latin American and Caribbean Natural Science Collections: Active, 
visible and well-connected*


Join us to celebrate the wealth and diversity of Latin American and 
Caribbean natural history collections and their contributions to 
societies’ challenges and research needs, discuss future opportunities 
and developments, and connect with the diversity of existing collection 
networks in the region.

Building capacity by mobilizing collection data and networking natural 
science collections as part of a GBIF funded project (CESP2022-011, [1, 
2]) we are hosting an online workshop series in September that will 
combine presentations by members of the regional collections community 
with discussions among all participants in breakout rooms. The four 
workshop sessions will focus on

1) natural science collections and existing networks in the region,
2) advanced uses and novel applications of scientific collections and 
their data,
3) the GBIF Registry of Scientific Collections (GRSCiColl [3]) as 
powerful backbone, and
4) developing use cases and collaborations that build on GRSCiColl and 
collections’ data.

The detailed workshop program can be found at

The workshop will be conducted in English and Spanish with simultaneous 
interpretation. Its sessions are scheduled on Mondays, Sept. 5, 12. 19 
and 26, 2022 at 19 UTC. Find your local time here
