What is the GTI?

GTI is the acronym for Global Taxonomic Initiative and part of the CBD (Convention on Biological Diversity); the GTI was created to diminish the taxonomic impediment. The GTI is a cross-cutting theme of the CBD and is a loose collection of National Focal Points (NFP). Each CBD member state is supposed to establish a GTI NFP

Since these pages are mainly for the German speaking community, I will just translate the most important parts into English. The following pages are currently available: How many taxonomists are there worldwide? Some pages are in German and English: Archive, Meetings, Taxonomy, Contact, Links.

Please contact me for further details on English resources.
