Taxacom: Connecting Collections Workshop Series: September 5, 12, 19, 26, 2022

[Alina Freire-Fierro]

*Latin American and Caribbean Natural Science Collections: Active, visible
and well-connected*

Join us to celebrate the wealth and diversity of Latin American and
Caribbean natural history collections and their contributions to societies’
challenges and research needs, discuss future opportunities and
developments, and connect with the diversity of existing collection
networks in the region.

Building capacity by mobilizing collection data and networking natural
science collections as part of a GBIF funded project (CESP2022-011, [1, 2])
we are hosting an online workshop series in September that will combine
presentations by members of the regional collections community with
discussions among all participants in breakout rooms. The *four workshop
sessions* will focus on

   1. natural science collections and existing networks in the region,
   2. advanced uses and novel applications of scientific collections and
   their data,
   3. the GBIF Registry of Scientific Collections (GRSCiColl [3]) as
   powerful backbone, and
   4. developing use cases and collaborations that build on GRSCiColl and
   collections’ data.

The detailed program of the workshop series can be found below. The
workshop will be conducted in English and Spanish with simultaneous
interpretation. Its sessions are scheduled on *Mondays, Sept. 5, 12. 19 and
26, 2022 at 19 UTC*. Find your local time at this link [4].

The workshop sessions are free and accessible worldwide, either by using
the video conferencing application zoom or accessing the zoom sessions from
your computer’s internet browser.
