Global Registries Meetings

Canberra 2009 Workshop



The Global Registries Initiative partners convened a workshop at the Australian National University (5-6 Nov. 2009) to discuss a common operational framework for the Initiative, to establish a model of shared governance, and to outline the scope and functions of services to be offered. The workshop was divided into four sessions over two days. A workshop agenda and a discussion paper were circulated beforehand.

Washington 2008 Meeting



The purpose of this meeting was to bring stakeholders together in order to coordinate activities, including planning, funding, implementation, and governance of a possible international registries initiative. Outputs included an overall plan, timeline, and activities specific to each stakeholder community allowing the effort to move forward.

This meeting, which involved stakeholders from Australia, the UK, and the USA, followed from two previous meetings which had confirmed support for this effort across our international communities (links to the reports from these two meetings are provided below).

The meeting coincided with the Fall CNI task force meeting in Washington, D.C., in early December.
