GLCF presents forest cover change study to Vice President elect of Paraguay

The Global Land Cover Facility's Deforestation Mapping Group was invited to display its results and products from its study of forest cover change in Paraguay during the 1990s at a reception for the Vice President Elect of the Republic of Paraguay, his excellency Luis Castiglioni. The reception was hosted by the Ambassador of Paraguay and held at the Mexican Cultural Institute on June 9, 2003. The GLCF display included a map of forest change in eastern Paraguay during the 1990s and media describing the data and methods used to create the forest change products.

Eric Armijo, master student in geography and intern with the Deforestation Mapping Group, presented the study results to the Vice President. The DMG provided copies of the presentation materials to the Vice President. Some of these materials have been translated into Spanish.
