The new ConserveOnline provides a global system for conservationists to effectively identify and build on lessons-learned from similar approaches, helping them innovate and scale smartly to keep pace with the escalating rate of ecological challenges such as greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss worldwide.
The Nature Conservancy built the new ConserveOnline with Oracle's investment partnership, and more than a year's work with original developers of Plone, an open source content management system that dates back to 2001. The global community of open source web developers is encouraged to contribute and enhance this new platform.
The new ConserveOnline allows conservationists anywhere easily manage their local knowledge flow, via free and fast coordination and document management tools; identify other individuals and organizations who are doing similar work; grow the existing global library of conservation tools, techniques, and experiences;
A public webinar demonstration of the new ConserveOnline will be provided on May 5 at 10:00 AM EDT; please join the demo!
