Opportunities to join GSE-FM

Promoting Partnerships

At present, GSE Forest Monitoring consists of the following partners:

• Users, initially drawn from a core group of countries but destined to expand over time
• Operational Service Providers
• Research Partners
• System Developers
• Expert Consultants

The present stakeholders in GSE-FM are committed to expanding its services in support of regular forest monitoring and reporting consistent with the requirements of for example, the Convention on Climate Change and Kyoto Protocol. However, this commitment extends much further.




The existing partnership is open to the inclusion of additional interested parties as users or service providers within an Open Service Partnership.

It is anticipated the core users of today will multiply incrementally into a worldwide network that will be mutually supportive.





This involves a regularised and controlled process that integrates new users and expands the geographic service-delivery areas while maintaining the quality of outputs. In practise, service providers with local expertise can efficiently deliver customised services backed by global experience and advanced technical capacity.
