NatureMetrics and IUCN launch eBioAtlas to tackle biodiversity crisis.
NatureMetrics and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) today announce the launch of eBioAtlas: a joint programme to map global freshwater biodiversity using eDNA.
Change is possible for the benefit of nature
FFI and NatureMetrics have signed an agreement that will see the application of environmental DNA (eDNA) technology for wildlife monitoring in Africa. The technology brings benefits both for nature and for the local communities empowered to conduct ongoing monitoring across multiple FFI Africa projects.
eDNA Highlighted in IUCN’s Corporate Biodiversity Guidelines
eDNA technology has been highlighted in the recent IUCN guidelines as a cost-effective way of gathering data while minimising the need for people on the ground. These guidelines were published to help companies evaluate their biodiversity performance and promote internal decision-making and external disclosure.
