The African Pollen Database is a network serving all scientists involved in African palynology. Its objective is to provide a tool independent of particular research programs for the realization of researches concerned with biodiversity and global change. It is funded for 3 years by the ECC program IC18-CT98-0274 and the UNESCO PICG 431
