Workshop on Data Mobilisation for biodiversity data-holding institutions from Zimbabwe

On January 30-31, 2020, GBIF Zimbabwe (GBIF.ZW) organized a training workshop on Data Mobilisation addressed to experts from biodiversity data-holding institutions from Zimbabwe. This workshop was held at the Harare Institute of Technology (HIT) and it has been possible thanks to the previous knowledge acquired for some GBIF.ZW staff during a previous meeting with staff from the Spanish node of GBIF which took place in September 2019 in Madrid.

The workshop was attended by a total of 29 participants from data-holding institutions in Zimbabwe including the Forestry Commission, Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, National Herbarium and Botanic Garden, Mukuvisi Woodlands, Environment Management Authority, etc.

This workshop is an activity from the “Strengthening Zimbabwe’s GBIF node through collaboration with GBIF Spain” CESP project, funded by GBIF.

The Agenda and training materials (presentations and use cases) used during this workshop can be found on the project website.
