I also wish to thank the following organisations: Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), the Netherlands Development Organization (SNV), the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and the Commission des Forets d‟Afrique Centrale (COMIFAC) for the opportunity to work within their framework and for the team spirit and support. I am also very grateful to the following collaborators: Ewane Marcus of University of Buea; Ghislaine Bongers of Wageningen University, The Netherlands and Georges Nlend of University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland for their collaboration in the field. Thanks also to Agbor Demian of Mamfe. Special thanks go to Dr. Ousseynou Ndoye, Armand Assend Ze, Irine Ako and Daniel Knoop of the FAO for their comments and orientation before starting this work and particularly to all those actors who participated in the interviews. v ABSTRACT „Gnetum‟ (Gnetum africanum and Gnetum buchholzianum) is a leafy vine found in Central African tropical humid forests. The leaves are harvested and traded principally as a vegetable in Cameroon and neighbouring Nigeria. Manyu, Kupe-Manengouba and Ndian divisions in the Southwest and Mungo in Littoral were selected as important production areas where little data exists. Participatory rural appraisal tools were used to gather information from producers, retailers, exporters, middlemen and restaurants in the divisions and markets in Cameroon and Nigeria. Seven different trading channels exist from the 2 regions, employing an estimated 1895 people (759 producers, 60 traders, 138 exporters, 141 importers, 267 retailers and 330 in support services). Gnetum contributes up to 62% of producer‟s income, with an annual average profit of 598,729 FCFA. It provides up to 75% of retailer‟s and 58% of exporter‟s incomes, giving an average exporter at Idenau an annual average profit of 481,708,750 FCFA. The better organised Nigerian wholesalers average profit is almost double their Cameroonian counterparts. Processing is generally simple and does not add significant value or reduce perishability greatly. Whilst a regulatory framework for Gnetum exists as Special Forestry Product, the majority of respondents traded without permits. Increasing quantities harvested, combined with a lack of regulatory or customary control of harvest coupled with no enforcement of permits, a very low level of domestication and increasing consumer demand have led to an unsustainable trade situation, indicated by a reduction from 336 tonnes from 2007 to 2008. Correspondingly, the price has increased by 100 CFA per kg on average from 2007- 2009. Recommendations include linking actors in the Cameroon chains; domestication programs to increase and more effective and enforceable regulatory and customary control measures to allow this highly profitable trade and important income generator to continue in the long term. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION

Page 1/24 Abstract Background: Forests are naturally endowed to combat climate change by protecting people and livelihoods as well as creating a base for sustainable economic and social development. But this natural mechanism is often hampered by anthropogenic activities. It is therefore imperative to take measures that are environmentally sustainable not only for mitigation but also for its adaptation. This study was carried out to assess the role of Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) as a strategy to cope with the impacts of climate change among forest-dependent communities around the Bamkoko Forest Reserve in the South West Region of Cameroon. Methods: Datasets were collected through household questionnaires (20% of the population in each village that constitute the study site was a sample), participatory rural appraisal techniques, transect walks in the 4 corners of the Bamboko Forest Reserve with a square sample of 25 m2 x 25 m2 to identied and record NTFPs in the reserve, and direct eld observations.
