<p>The <a href="https://www.wri.or.id/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women Research Institute</a> created the impacts of forest and peatland fires video in July 2019 to demonstrate how forest and peatland fires threaten communities across Indonesia, causing destruction of property and public health concerns. The video emphasizes how early-warning systems like GFW can help detect fires so that communities can take action to protect themselves and their forests. The video is available in Bahasa Indonesian with English subtitles.</p>

<p>“Research Horizons for Global Forest Watch” is the third installment in our “Frontiers in Forest Monitoring” webinar series. This webinar previews GFW’s ongoing research, focusing on three core questions: Can we detect forest change faster and in greater detail?; can we improve our understanding of what causes forest loss?; and can we map how much carbon forests are emitting and sequestering? The webinar is available in English and Spanish.</p>
