Who do you connect with to find and share biodiversity data? Where can you get access to both the people and technologies you need?
GBIF’s Participation team interprets the needs of GBIF Participants and then work directly with the Informatics team to develop the necessary products and services. This continuous feedback between Participation and Informatics as client and service provider, and between the Participants and the Secretariat as client and service provider is shown in the figure, below.
We want to optimise our engagement with – and services to – Participants, in order to move quickly towards a fully decentralised system. This means strategically planning external communications that focus on awareness-raising and profile-building across stakeholder groups.
