Monitoring for Impact is a product of the combined efforts of the World Resources Institute's (WRI) Global Forest Watch (GFW) program and Conservation International's (CI) Monitoring and Evaluation Program. GFW was launched in 1997 by WRI with non-governemtal organizations (NGOs) and local leaders from nations with significant forest resources. GFW links satellite imagery with on-the-ground investigation by local groups to assemble information about risks to the world's great forests. It uses the Internet to make the information widely available.
This is the second volume of Monitoring for Impact. It contains the stories of 13 NGOs monitoring programs and some lessons learned by the NGOs. The case studies are presented because many environmental organizations in the world must solve similar sets of problems. These diverse organizations can provide advice through common experience.
Volume 1 is a hands-on handbook on organizing and implementing a natural resources monitoring program. The full text can found at http://www.globalforestwatch.org
