Description
Summary:In August 2020, researchers and resource managers from around the world gathered virtually for Conservation of Fragile Karst: A Workshop on Sustainability and Community, in support of UNESCO science programs. The purpose of the workshop was to enhance communication and the sharing of ideas and resources between major international conservation and science programs that protect, study, or manage cave and karst resources. As part of this meeting, a workshop was held to help resource managers and researchers consider data from a data management perspective. The goal was to familiarize participants with best practices in data management, provide resources for following these practices, and promote an understanding and appreciation of the benefits of good data management.
