NECOBELAC

From the webpage:

NECOBELAC is a Network of Collaboration Between Europe & Latin American-Caribbean countries. The project works in the field of public health NECOBELAC aims to improve scientific writing, promote open access publication models, and foster technical and scientific cooperation between Europe & Latin American Caribbean (LAC) countries.

NECOBELAC acts through training activities in scientific writing and open access by organizing courses for trainers in European and LAC institutions.

Topic maps get mentioned in the faqs for the project: NECOBELAC Project FAQs

Is there any material (i.e. introductory manuals) explaining how the topic maps have been generated as knowledge representation and how can be optimally used?

Yes, a reliable tool introducing the scope and use of the topic maps is represented by the “TAO of topic maps” by Steve Pepper. This document clearly describes the characteristics of this model, and provides useful examples to understand how it actually works.

Well,…, but this is 2011 and NECOBELAC represents a specific project focused on public health.

Perhaps using the “TAO of topic maps” as a touchstone, but we surely can produce more project specific guidance. Yes?
