This awareness-raising seminar addresses the challenges and specificities related to the governance of a Geographic Information System (GIS). It highlights the value and modern capabilities of GIS applications, as well as best practices in GIS organisation. Its objective is to help those who hold partial or full responsibility for a GIS better understand how to align it with strategic goals and demonstrate its contribution to informed decision-making.

At the end of the course, participants will be able to understand and better grasp the governance, structure, and strategic importance of a GIS, and will have the essential insights needed to plan the future development of their GIS.
