Share biodiversity data through GBIF - an invitation to the private sector
Channel: Gbif Secretariat
Date: 2020-10-29

Companies and institutions that publish biodiversity data through GBIF have joined the vast list of organizations that follow conservation and sustainable use guidelines. By sharing information about our planet's species, they help to understand and assess biodiversity. Their collaboration also optimizes environmental management, promotes scientific research, and increases social awareness.

Join GBIF -the Global Biodiversity Information Facility-, the largest biodiversity data network in the world. As an international open-data infrastructure, it allows anyone anywhere to access, share, and use information about all types of life on Earth. 

This video is a co-production between the GBIF nodes of Spain, Colombia, France, Portugal, and Norway, as part of a Capacity Enhancement Support Programme (CESP) project that aims to promote private sector participation in GBIF.
