Dear friends in Asia,

As the end of 2024 is approaching, we want to thank you all for joining us regularly, occasionally, casually, surprisingly, friendly, and joyfully for the whole year. We’ve learned a lot from our discussions and appreciate your participation.

We will suspend our weekly meet-up until opening the room again on the 9th of January in the new year. Please remember to join us.

Also, we are holding a Virtual Data Mobilization Workshop in February for the first time in the last few years. We hope the timing is suitable for those who couldn’t participate during summertime. Please go to the GBIF event to learn more at: https://www.gbif.org/event/ece2a1-8df5-46c9-8104-a199ac0/2025-virtual-data-m...

Please also help advertise this mailing list so more people can receive timely information about what’s new from GBIF Asia Regional Support Team.

Lastly, please treat yourself to a good break, and then let’s work together and bring more biodiversity data available to all in 2025!

Happy New Year!

Chihjen, Lily, Melissa and Vijay
