Preliminary Programme of
the Second ENBI Forums Workshop (Palma de Mallorca, 10th -
12th May 2005)
This workshop is based on the experience and
conclusions of the past ENBI events: "Workshop on the
continuity and sustainability of biodiversity databases and
network organisations" (Chania, January 1 7 - 18, 2005)
and the 3rd ENBI electronic conference: "Improving European
participation in GBIF" (February 14 - 28, 2005), with
the respective topics of Continuity of ENBI and other European
initiatives in biodiversity information and scientific community.
In these events the aspect of "Improving
European contribution to GBIF" was focused on the idea
of setting up a European GBIF node. This time we aim to bring
the country GBIF nodes, and the would-be-nodes together; to
learn from success stories and to workout solutions for the
standing problems.
The workshop is envisaged as an opportunity
to bring together stakeholders of the GBIF initiative from
several areas: GBIF nodes, EU projects, GBIF secretariat,
European organisms, etc to: establish links, learn from each
other, and get a better understanding of the implications
of participating in GBIF (at global, European and country
level), and, in the end, to contribute to a better European
participation to GBIF.
