The International Tropical Timber Organization INTERNATIONAL TROPICAL TIMBER ORGANIZATION ITTO PRE-PROECT PROPOSAL INTITULÉ: SUPPORT TO THE CREATION OF GREEN BELTS AROUND THE WAZA, BENOUÉ, FARO AND BOUBA NDJIDDA NATIONAL PARKS SERIAL NUMBER PPD 178/14 Rev.2 (F) COMMITTEE REFORESTATION AND FOREST MANAGEMENT SUBMITTED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF CAMEROON ORIGINAL LANGUAGE FRENCH SUMMARY The plant formations of the Waza, Faro, Benue and Bouba Ndjidda National Parks are subject to multiple threats that jeopardize their existence. These threats stem from the way subsistence needs of local communities are addressed including their needs for fuel wood and wood material for rural infrastructure and fences, and this situation is maintained through a lack of local initiatives to rehabilitate the degrading plant cover. National Parks are the least degraded areas in the different regions. To reduce the rate of degradation of the plant cover and improve the supply of fuel wood and construction wood in the areas surrounding these parks, it is appropriate to launch a project to establish green belts around these national parks. However, the lack of information required for setting up such project calls for the prior formulation of a pre- project whose implementation will consist in the conduct of baseline studies and the formulation of a full project proposal.

PRE-PROJECT CONTEXT 1.1 Origin and justification Since the 1930s, Cameroon has created many protected areas to better conserve its biodiversity. Today, there are 31 protected areas having various statutes and covering around 19.2% of the total country area. This rich heritage is the result of the strengthening of the legal and institutional framework, taking into consideration national and international laws. The initiatives undertaken in the context of the conservation of its biodiversity have been significant. They have resulted in the creation of 18 national parks, 06 wildlife reserves, 04 sanctuaries including one flora sanctuary, 03 zoos and botanical gardens. Added to this are transboundary initiatives including the Trinational Sangha Park (agreement between the Lobéké National Park in Cameroon, the Dzanga Sangha National Park in CAR and the Nouabale-doki Park in Congo); the TRIDOM initiative (Agreement covering the Dja conservation area in Cameroon, the Odzala C.A. in Congo and the Minkébé C.A. in Congo); the Agreement covering the Serra Oura - Bouba Djidda areas (Chad-Cameroon), ongoing initiatives between Cameroon and Nigeria concerning conservation areas (the Takamanda National Park in Cameroon and the Cross River National Park in Nigeria; the Faro National Park Cameroon, the Gachaka Goumti National Park in Nigeria, the Waza National Park in Cameroon, Lake Chad Basin National Park in Nigeria, and finally the Rio Campo Reserve in Equatorial Guinea and the Campo Ma'an National Park in Cameroon. Protected areas of Cameroon receive the support of several international organizations such as IUCN (Waza NP), WWF has been involved in a conservation project involving the Benue, Faro and Bouba Djidda National Parks, which is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF). To date, an agreement to support the management of the Benue National Park is being finalized between WWF and MINFOF. In addition, the WCS had just undertaken an overview of the Bouba Djidda N.P. to conduct wildlife inventories and provide an outlook on the residual population of elephants after the slaughter that had been perpetrated. In addition, this organization has been adequately involved in the Bouba Djidda-Sena Oura cross-border agreement. While the above mentioned efforts were conducted to promote conservation, the State of Cameroon developed mitigation measures to reduce the damage caused by the use of wood resources to produce the fuelwood needed in this part of the country by initiating the fuelwood project to supply the towns of Maroua and Garoua. The conservation areas of Cameroon (especially the North) face an increasing deterioration trend caused by the increase in population and the search for economic opportunities that leads the communities to engage in gold mining activities, cattle raising, firewood and timber harvesting beyond their community lands. Concerning the conservation areas of Benue, Bouba Djidda, Faro and Waza in particular, which still have a high biodiversity, they are used by local communities as source of fodder and fuelwood, as these commodities are becoming increasingly rare on village community lands. In addition, earlier forest planting policies (Green Sahel project) were never focused on areas situated on the periphery of these conservation areas. The consequence of this has been the loss of wildlife habitat, the loss of species including the black rhino, the African Wild Dog etc. To remedy this situation, it is wise

    International Journal of Geography and Régional Planning Research Vol.1,No.1,pp.1-12, March 2014 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) MONTANE RESOURCES EXPLOITATION AND THE EMERGENCE OF GENDER ISSUES IN SANTA ECONOMY OF THE WESTERN BAMBOUTOS HIGHLANDS, CAMEROON Zephania Nji FOGWE Department of Geography, Box 3132, F.L.S.S., University of Douala ABSTRACT: Highlands have played key roles in the survival history of humankind. They are refuge heavens of valuable resources like fresh water endemic floral and faunal sanctuaries and other ecological imprints. The mountain resource base in most tropical Africa has been mined rather than managed for the benefit of the low-lying areas. The world over an appreciable population derives its sustenance directly from mountain resources and this makes for about one-tenth of the world’s poorest.The Western highlands of Cameroon are an archetypical territory of a high population density and an economically very active population. The highlands are characterised by an ecological fragility and a multi-faceted socio-economic dynamism at varied levels of poverty, malnutrition and under employment, yet about 80 percent of the Santa highlands’ population depends on its natural resource base of vast fertile land, fresh water and montane refuge forest for their livelihood. KEYWORDS: Montane Resources, Gender Issues, Santa Economy, Western Bamboutos, Cameroon INTRODUCTION The volcanic landscape on the western slopes of the Bamboutos mountain range slopes to the Santa Highlands is an area where agriculture in the form of crop production and animal rearing thrives with remarkable success. Arabica coffee cultivation was in extensive hectares cultivated at altitudes of about 1700m at the Santa Coffee Estate at Mile 12 in the 1970s and 1980s.

    Aerial Surveys of Wildlife and Human Activity Across the Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape Northern Cameroon and Southwestern Chad April - May 2015 Paul Elkan, Roger Fotso, Chris Hamley, Soqui Mendiguetti, Paul Bour, Vailia Nguertou Alexandre, Iyah Ndjidda Emmanuel, Mbamba Jean Paul, Emmanuel Vounserbo, Etienne Bemadjim, Hensel Fopa Kueteyem and Kenmoe Georges Aime Wildlife Conservation Society Ministry of Forests and Wildlife (MINFOF) L'Ecole de Faune de Garoua Funded by the Great Elephant Census Paul G. Allen Foundation and WCS SUMMARY The Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape is located in north Cameroon and extends into southwest Chad. It consists of Bouba N’djida, Sena Oura, Benoue and Faro National Parks, in addition to 25 safari hunting zones. Along with Zakouma NP in Chad and Waza NP in the Far North of Cameroon, the landscape represents one of the most important areas for savanna elephant conservation remaining in Central Africa. Aerial wildlife surveys in the landscape were first undertaken in 1977 by Van Lavieren and Esser (1979) focusing only on Bouba N’djida NP. They documented a population of 232 elephants in the park. After a long period with no systematic aerial surveys across the area, Omondi et al (2008) produced a minimum count of 525 elephants for the entire landscape. This included 450 that were counted in Bouba N’djida NP and its adjacent safari hunting zones. The survey also documented a high richness and abundance of other large mammals in the Bouba N’djida NP area, and to the southeast of Faro NP. In the period since 2010, a number of large-scale elephant poaching incidents have taken place in Bouba N’djida NP.

    Syllabus Review 6 (1), 2015 : 155 - 174 N SYLLABUS REVIEW E S Human & Social Science Series Gouvernance urbaine et urbanisation de Garoua Simon Pierre Petnga Nyamen1, Michel Tchotsoua2 1Doctorant en Géographie, Université de Ngaoundéré, BP : 454, [email protected], 2Professeur titulaire des universités, Université de Ngaoundéré, BP : 454, [email protected] Résumé Du petit village créé vers la fin du XVIIIème siècle à l’actuelle Communauté Urbaine, Garoua a connu plusieurs transformations du fait des acteurs de sa croissance. La forme actuelle de la municipalité est la sixième d’une série commencée en 1951 et s’explique a priori par la volonté de l’État du Cameroun d’impulser une dynamique nouvelle à son processus de décentralisation. Cet article analyse l’urbanisation de Garoua en mettant un accent particulier sur le mode de gestion de la ville. L’approche méthodologique est basée sur les analyses des cartes et images satellites, les observations directes de terrain et le traitement des données collectées par entretiens semi-structurés avec les autorités de Garoua, les représentants des organismes impliqués dans le développement urbain et certains habitants de la ville. Les principaux résultats de cette étude relèvent que, les différentes transformations administratives du territoire ont favorisé la multiplication et la diversification des acteurs impliqués dans la gestion urbaine. Ces acteurs ont, dans la plupart des cas, des objectifs différents ou des compétences qui se chevauchent, ce qui fait qu’il subsiste une confusion dans le rôle de chacun d’entre eux et constitue un obstacle à la réalisation de certains projets de développement dans la ville de Garoua.

But the main relevant impacts are recorded since 1990 due to intensification of agricultural activities and urbanization. LULC effects and dynamics vary from one region to another according to the type of vegetation cover and activities. Using remote sensing, GIS and subsidiary data, this paper attempted to model the land use and land cover (LULC) change in the Centre Region of Cameroon that host Yaoundé metropolis. The rapid expansion of the city of Yaoundé drives to the land conversion with farmland intensification and forest depletion accelerating the rate at which land use and land cover (LULC) transformations take place.
