Everyone can contribute to measuring and preserving Surinames biodiversity with the Groene Groei Wildlife Watch.
Surinames forest has an abundance of unique flora (plants) and fauna (animals). However, the country lacks a coherent system where all information can be found in one place. The data collected with this app will help map the state of affairs of our biodiversity.
The long-term vision is to create an active community of citizens who are the eyes and ears of our 93% forested Suriname and regularly post updates of what they see in their surroundings. This gives us a better picture of all life around us. This will ultimately support Surinames policy-making to manage biodiversity sustainably.
The Green Growth Wildlife App is running on the SPOTTERON Citizen Science Platform.
