The Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, in collaboration with the Convention on Biological Diversity, the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, CABI and the CGIAR Genebank Initiative, is pleased to invite you the Global Workshop on Digital Sequence Information and Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture.
The global workshop will aim to:

* raise awareness among relevant stakeholders of the role of Digital Sequence Information (DSI) for the conservation and sustainable use of GRFA and the sharing of benefits derived from them;
* address the state of the art of DSI on genetic resources;
* present possible implications that related technologies might have for research and development related to GRFA, and
* consider the challenges associated with accessing and making full use of DSI.
