| As part of the digitization program of Meise Botanic Garden (DOE! Projects), a platform for crowdsourcing was developed to allow citizens to contribute to the digitization of natural and cultural history specimens (www.doedat.be). Within DiSSCo Flanders, the platform is further developed as a service that can be used by the DiSSCo partners. This involves active modification of the current ways of data entry, but also an investment in communication with all different stakeholders and the community of (potential) volunteers. Some case studies will be developed in collaboration with the CANAHIST project using the Central Africa collections which are represented in the Belgian DiSSCo partners. Moreover, many citizens have private collections related to this area due to past Belgian colonial history. |
