Knowledge & Information Management

SANBI has started a process to develop a biodiversity information management system, which is required in terms of the Biodiversity Act. This will involve:

• a review process to identify the needs and functions for co-ordination and management of biodiversity data in South Africa
• the development of a strategy for the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) to fulfill this role.
