Forests of Central Africa - FAC

How can we improve polices, strategies and modes of intervention on every level so as to ensure the long-term preservation of the Congo Basin forests and food security for the people who derive a living from them?

The preservation of the Congo Basin forests and of the services they provide lies at the heart of many environmental, agro-economic, social, governance and territorial issues. Research is supporting efforts to improve forest management and forestry policy, to understand the effects of global change and to study and preserve biodiversity.
