The main goals of the initiative are to

• promote the management and curation of natural history collections in Switzerland;
• unify physical and virtual access to biodiversity and geodiversity information;
• provide new, linked and open access to data associated with collections;
• create a platform to encourage and supprot the scientific use of natural history collections.
