Knowledge-sharing with organizations in Asia, Africa, and Central Asia reinforces the EcoSouth idea of south-south interchange. International experience and technical knowledge combined with solid language skills allows technology transfer and attention in Spanish, English, Russian, German and French.

This knowledge and overview has contributed to developing a reliable monitoring system for MCR, which allows an up-to-date overview of the technology throughout the world.
