Dear Patricia

Thanks for the information.
Indeed it would be really interesting to present something about BID there.

And just to let you know, as La Réunion is a french territory, the UMS Patrinat is in direct link with the regional plateform and they are already quite well organised and GBIF France already connected some data sets from the region.

best wishes
Anne-Sophie

Objet: [BID-Community] hird Island Biology conference  in July 2019 (8 - 13) on La Réunion

Dear all

 

I was asked by a contact at the European Commission active in their Pacific Island program,  to make you aware of this conference

 

https://ib2019.sciencesconf.org/

 

The EU would like to encourage participation of our community to this conference to make the participants aware of the conservation of the collections and archives kept in small repositories on the Islands. So that action are taken to mobilse these collections more, to digitize them and make them available.

 

From the site I read that the topics of the Symposia will be decided the 30th of January and there is a deadline the for abstract is 15th of February.

 

I might be good to present some of the GBIF BID grants outcomes there ?

 

All the best

Patricia
