  1. Delivering relevant data – the case of agrobiodiversity Rui Figueira Portuguese Node of GBIF, Instituto Superior de Agronomiaruifigueira@isa.ulisboa.pt 26 OCT 2016

  2. Motivation Promote the use of GBIF mediated data on Agrobiodiversity Previous steps by GBIF GBIF GB21 - Presentation by Joana Magos Brehm (University of Birmingham) about the use of GBIF-mediated data in the conservation and utilization of crop wild relatives and how it contributes to the support of global food security https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsRzYA712Ws

  3. Keywords in ~1900 research papers that use or quote GBIF, from GBIF Public Library http://www.mendeley.com/groups/1068301/gbif-public-library/

  4. Number of scientific articles and reports in Google Scholar, since 2012, by searching for the following terms: search date: 23-10-2016

  5. Why do we have such low use in agrobiodiversity? GBIF Capacity Enhancement Support Programme 2016 project: Agrotraining - Proofing GBIF use on agrobiodi-versity through needs assessment and training - building on the conclusions of the Fitness for use report, identify if and which are the limitations for a wider use of GBIF mediated data on agrobiodiversity; - use this experience to build a training course on using agrobiodiversity information available through GBIF and other relevant data sources Partners:

  6. Project activities: Develop needs assessment on agrobiodiversity: • Use participatory approaches to learn about stakeholders needs; • Promote an online questionnaire to identify communities needs on information for agrobiodiversity collect needs identified by stakeholders Realize training to promote use of biodiversity information on agrobiodversity: • Develop and perform a training course and reproduce as online course
