CAMEROON: Forestry Ministry practices outside the law denounced in Ebo

Cameroon's Minister of Forests and Wildlife has just granted an annual logging certificate to the company Sextransbois, which already holds a forest concession under a provisional agreement. But for civil society, the process of granting this certificate, which concerns an area of the Ebo forest massif straddling the Central and Coastal regions, was not carried out in accordance with the forestry legislation and regulations in force in Cameroon. This decision threatens the rights of the Banen communities, who have always demanded a return to their ancestral lands, as well as the biodiversity of this forest.

CENTRAL AFRICA: has sustainable finance been relegated to a rhetorical exercise?

The Economic and Monetary Community of Central African States (CEMAC) and its partners organised an international forum on sustainable finance from 8 to 9 May 2023 in Douala, Cameroon. But apart from declarations and presentations on the theme, no commitments were made, despite the urgent need to act. The forum noted that the effects of climate change are affecting nearly 130 million people around the world. Greenpeace Africa believes that Central African leaders should give priority to local and indigenous populations in the deployment of green finance.
