Marine and coastal satellite services to track environmental crime activities (MASTREC)
The MASTREC project focuses on the detection of trafficking of illegal rosewood from Madagascar and illegal charcoal from Somalia/Kenya.
Working with colleagues at UN Environment, GRID-Arendal organized a group of international experts who took part in a “book spring” in Arendal in May. During this week-long writing marathon, the group gathered in a room and produced draft guidelines. The final product will go through extensive review before being released in early 2018.
