This resource functions as a dedicated technical training module designed for the administrators and national focal points responsible for managing biodiversity Clearing-House Mechanisms (CHM). It serves as a step-by-step digital manual for the Bioland tool, the specialized content management system used to power national biodiversity websites across the ASEAN region. Rather than addressing high-level policy, the playlist focuses entirely on the operational side of biodiversity informatics, offering visual instructions on how to build, maintain, and standardize a national web portal. It is essentially a "how-to" toolkit intended to bridge the gap between having a mandate to share data and possessing the digital literacy required to execute it. The content drills down into the specific mechanics of site administration, guiding users through the day-to-day workflows of a web administrator. It covers essential backend tasks such as creating and editing web pages, managing navigation menus, uploading documents, and configuring user permissions to ensure secure access. By demystifying these technical processes, the resource aims to ensure that each national node in the biodiversity network remains active and functional. It empowers technical staff to transform static repositories into dynamic platforms, ensuring that the digital infrastructure supporting biodiversity cooperation is robust, interoperable, and continuously updated. |
