Background information
During the Eleventh Steering Committee meeting (Bosnia and Herzegovina, September 2008) it was recognized that the existing Task Forces of the In situ Conservation Network have long-term plans of action and therefore deserve the status of “Working Groups”. The two Task Forces were therefore converted into WGs.
Documents
DIVA is a geographic information system that allows mapping and spatial analysis of genetic resources data. It was developed specifically for use with genebank data such as that available through national or international genebank documentation systems [more info].
