Worldwide Engagement for Digitizing Biocollections


Register Event, Tour, or Campaign

Introduce your biodiversity collections to the world during October’s WeDigBio event (Thursday–Sunday, October 8–11)!

Let us know your plans by September 8 (if outside the US) or September 15 (if in the US), so that your activities can appear on the calendar and we have enough time to get the WeDigBio stickers and tattoos to you for your participants.

Register an in-person, virtual, or hybrid data creation event for your local community. Often these last about 2–3 hours and can include a live biodiversity collections tour or research talk. Sometimes these are occurring in a class and are part of an assignment. Here’s the registration form: https://forms.gle/CNqhwSuWfcsoZd9c7

Watch for a full announcement about the WeDigBio Symposium and/or a Whirlwind Tour.

If you are teaching this semester, the symposium and/or whirlwind tour can form the basis of a fun assignment or extra credit activity!
