Status of GBIF
• Improved intra-operability• Focus on sustainability• Empower users through
interoperabilty• Bridge gaps from
– local– national– international

Achieving intra-operability
• Simplified data standards– Darwin Core Archives
• Improved data publication processes– Integrated Publishing Toolkit– Spreadsheet-based publishing
• Improved integration– New taxonomic resources– Improved data processing

The goal of the BiodiverCities Programme is to guide, support, capacitate and motivate local governments and their partners to
integrate biodiversity and ecosystem-based planning into all aspects of policy, decision making and implementation activities to result in
enhanced biodiversity conservation and more sustainable local economic development.
Acknowledgement of accountability and responsibility for the health and well-being of communities and recognition of biodiversity and essential ecosystem services as the
foundation of our existence are core components of the goal.
