While there is a PEFC endorsed national forest certification system in Korea, low awareness of certification has been a challenge to its widespead uptake. This project aims at changing this.
Generating new knowledge on carbon stocks in managed tropical forests
Research
Supporting CIRAD to generate new knowledge on the long-term impacts of timber extraction on both carbon stocks and timber recovery in the humid tropics.
Using remote sensing to increase access to sustainable forest management information
Innovation
With remote sensing an increasingly important tool within the forestry sector, we are supported the development of a web-based platform to monitor the sustainable management of forests in Finland using open-source satellite imagery.
Exploring pathways to deliver sustainable woody biomass
