A core focus of the UNEP-led Congo Basin Sustainable Landscapes Program is to advance cooperation between countries in the Congo Basin to enable and strengthen mechanisms for the effective management of transboundary landscapes. It was within this framework that a binational technical workshop between the Republic of Cameroon and the Republic of Equatorial Guinea took place in Kribi (Cameroon) from 2-4 October 2024.  The workshop was organized and led by COMIFAC and jointly organized by UNEP representing the GEF-7 Congo Basin Regional Coordination Project, WWF representing the Cameroon national GEF-7 Project, and IUCN representing the Equatorial Guinea national GEF-7 project.
