Central African Republic

This project focuses on enhancing ecological connectivity by scaling up the creation and management of ecological corridors linking protected areas across the Ngotto Forest landscape and the Mbaéré-Bodingué National Park. Its primary goal is to promote landscape-scale conservation, improve biodiversity conservation, and support sustainable land use practices through integrated natural resources management (INRM).

Integrated Community-based Management of High-Value Forest Ecosystems

The "Forests and Biodiversity Conservation Program in the Central African Republic (CAR) – Integrated Community-based Management of High-Value Forest Ecosystems" aims to conserve biodiversity and ensure sustainable use of critical forest landscapes through community-driven management strategies.

The Central African Republic (CAR) occupies a strategically important portion of the northern Congo Basin ecological region, forming a transition zone between dense tropical forests in the south and savanna landscapes in the north. This positioning gives CAR high ecological value, with forests that support significant biodiversity, provide essential ecosystem services, and contribute to regional climate regulation and transboundary conservation.
