«I help biodiversity institutions publish their occurrence and taxonomic data online for VertNet. I work closely with GBIF and iDigBio to ensure accessibility to data and I try to participate in activities to improve the quality of the data and advance the technological infrastructures for sharing and using data online for research. Additionally, through outreach activities, I try to share this knowledge with other communities in the interest of growing the content and quality of biodiversity data available online»

«I’m the IPT project leader. In this role I’m 100% committed to ensuring that the IPT is a stable and robust tool. What I enjoy most about working on the IPT is having the chance to collaborate with several other committed volunteers from all over the world. Together we keep this community-driven project thriving, in that it continues to meet the needs from an ever-increasing number of biodiversity data publishers.»

«I coordinate training activities at the global level for GBIF. I am passionate about the use of new technologies in training and education. I would really love to bring to the world of biodiversity informatics many of the advancements in the fields of education and capacity enhancement that are creating a revolution in many other fields: learner-centered education, co-learning, realistic planning and evaluation in learning processes and much more»
