The Strategic Objective of CARPE is to reduce the rate of forest degradation and loss of biodiversity through increased local, national, and regional natural resource management capacity in nine central African countries: the Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Republic of Congo, Burundi, Cameroon, Rwanda, and Sao Tome & Principe, and the DRC.
Intermediate results
This is to be done through three intermediate results focusing on:
- (i) improving the sustainability of natural resources management (NRM)
- (ii) strengthening the governance framework for NRM (policies, institutions, laws), and
- (iii) institutionalizing monitoring of natural resources within the Congo Basin region.
