Are you a curator of living plant collection in a botanic garden? We need 10 minutes of your time to understand how collection data is managed across gardens worldwide and identify opportunities for improvement of BGCI databases.

This survey will also provide information on the capacity for collections management across different regions so that we can target our efforts more efficiently. The results from this survey will form part of a wider analysis BGCI is conducting in conjunction with Cambridge University Botanic Garden to assess how gardens manage their living collections to support ex situ conservation, and inform a model to leverage capacity towards conservation efforts.

Thank you for your time. The survey should take less than 10 minutes to complete.

The survey is available in English, French and Spanish.
