In this webinar, that took place on the 17th November 2020, we present the collaboration between GGS, an organization that helps Suriname grow with ecological and sustainable balance, and Satelligence.
We talk about the techniques implemented by Satelligence to monitor Suriname forest, the clear definition of forest and bosvermindering (forest degradation), examples of bosvermindering alerts in the past 10 months and practical actions that can be taken to protect Suriname forest.
