Information

Welcome to the website of the project "Biodiversity impact assessment as management tool for community forestry in the Cameroon Mountains". This website gives information on the use of environmental impact assessment (EIA) in community forestry in the North-West and South-West Provinces of Cameroon. The site presents guidelines on how EIA can be used to plan for sustainable use of biodiversity in community forestry projects and gives indicators for biodiversity that can be used to estimate and monitor the impact of livelihood activities in forest in the Cameroon Mountains. The project and this website are an activity of the Western Highlands Nature Conservation Network WHINCONET.
