From the forest to the market: promoting forest certification in Korea

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.
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
Innovation
Woody biomass from North America is an increasingly important renewable energy in Europe, but it must be produced sustainably. This project looked to improve the communication and coordination between the relevant stakeholders in Europe and the USA.
Developing tools to support small-forest owners achieve certification
Innovation
Forest certification can be a burden for many small- and family forest owners. By developing an online group registration and management system, this project sought to make their lives a little easier.
