Here are some stories about how real world changes can flow from
participation in Dataversity.
If you have a story about this, please add it here.
The Dataversity project was based on a hypothesis that improving the
coordination of efforts among local government biodata managers would
ultimately lead to better quality data to support biodiversity data
management, locally nationally and globally.
The mechanism for that was thought to be something like this:
Improved *coordination* *of* *efforts* will result in
local government biodata managers having *improved* *access*
to *tools* and *assistance*, which will be
used to improve biodata management, in ways that lead to
*better* *data* *available* to support biodiversity management.
At the last national workshop, a number of participants contributed
stories about how they had used what they gained from Dataversity to
improve biodata management. Below is a link to a document containined
those stories.
