Informations sur le projet/l’activité

This 3-year project is implementing industrial utilization and marketing research activities to promote production, trade and consumption of products manufactured with lesser-used Ghanaian tropical timber species for which inventory data and technical properties information are available. While the project focus is on product development research and market studies, research on the environmental impact of harvesting lesser-used species at various intensity levels is also included. Dissemination of the technologies developed and other project results to forest industries of Ghana and selected countries in the region will occur through training workshops, seminars, and publications.
