On the continent, the importance of the Congo Basin forests cannot be understated. Often called the lungs of Africa, it is the largest carbon sink in the world. The Congo Basin spans across six countries - Cameroon, Republic of Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the Central African Republic. These countries are struggling today with rising debt, high inflation, conflicts and climate change. Overall, growth in the region has been inadequate to reduce extreme poverty and create jobs. To respond to these intertwined challenges, countries will need urgently to diversify their economies and find innovative ways to meet their large development and climate finance needs.
