The Tropical Ecology Assessment and Monitoring Network (TEAM) provides an early warning system for loss of biodiversity in tropical forests. Through a global web of field stations, scientists use standardized methods to collect real-time data that is publicly available. Our film series follows three TEAM scientists on three different continents monitoring animals, vegetation and climate. “We can only monitor global threats if we have studies running at the global scale,” says Uganda site manager Badru Mugerwa from Uganda. “And that’s what TEAM is doing.”

To help TEAM effectively guide conservation action, we’ve produced four short films, a large image library and an interactive ebook over five trips to Africa, Asia and Latin America. The photographs have been used extensively by Conservation International and other project partners and the films have toured internationally.
