GRID-Arendal is an environmental services organization established in 1989 and based at 3 Teaterplassen, Arendal, Agder n-4836, Norway, with 51-200 employees. It creates environmental knowledge by organizing and transforming available environmental data into credible, science-based information products, delivered through innovative communication tools and capacity-building services for relevant stakeholders.
