Empower Forests, Ensure Resilience
- Engage and empower frontline communities to participate actively in forest conservation efforts and sustainable management.
- Forge strong alliances with civil society organizations to be robust voices for forest conservation, inclusive of community rights and well-being.
- Lobby the government and engage with key stakeholders to prioritize and effectively implement the Central African Forests Initiative (CAFI) to conserve and sustainably manage Cameroon's forests.

Why this goal? Forests are essential for the health of our planet. They provide a home for a wide variety of plants and animals. They also help regulate the climate, prevent erosion, and provide clean water. However, forests are under threat from a variety of human activities, including deforestation, logging, and climate change. It is important to take action to protect these valuable ecosystems for future generations.
