The Asia Regional Engagement meeting and Symposium on Open Science & Data Use (22-23 November 2022)

The Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Chulalongkorn University, and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) cordially invites all to attend “The Asia Regional Engagement meeting and Symposium on Open Science & Data Use” on November 22-23, 2022, from 09.00 – 17.00 hrs. at Room 801, Chaloem Rajakumari 60 Building (Chamchuri 10) Chulalongkorn University. The event aims to demonstrate the benefits brought about by a global open biodiversity data infrastructure such as GBIF to local and regional economies.

The GBIF is an international organization that works with academic institutions and governments all around the world to provide an infrastructure for biodiversity information. Examples of collected data include information about the existence of species gleaned from specimens kept in a museum, as well as current data on citizen science. Such information is available online for free access and can be utilized in peer-reviewed studies that answer the research issue and to make judgments on the preservation of natural resources, human health, and sustainable development.

The intended audience of this event are:

• Asian GBIF nodes and Heads of Delegation
• Representatives of international organisations and initiatives, and key regional stakeholders
• Representatives of Asian governments not currently participating as formal members of GBIF
• Representatives of Thai institutions
