| Abstract: | The policy of the Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA), located at Tervuren, near Brussels, in Belgium in taxonomy and in biodiversity informatics in general is presented, in order to show how early taken choices concerning collaboration were and still are beneficial for its various stakeholders. Taxonomy training for African partners and students (funded by the Belgian government cooperation) is an important aspect of this collaboration with developing countries. Secondly, the international collaboration in taxonomy and participation in networks (mostly at European Union level) of this institution is treated. |
