The control of a public health disease is rightly considered by medical authorities as a health priority, especially when it j.s severely disabling for a considerable part of the population. The health priority becomes a national imperative when such a disease prevents the socioeconomic development of many areas 1n the country. When it extends beyond the borders of one country and the solution to the problem of public health lies in activities involving several countries, it ls necessary to arrive at a regional control. The inter-country cooperatlon can then appeal for in*.ernational aid proportional to the scope of the activity to be carried out. 2. Qnchocerciasis control corresponds to the above outline. This concerns bringing under control a severely disabling disease, river blindness, that is widespread in some of the African regions. This control will prompt the populations to reclaim lands that had been abandoned in the past and this will make it possible to improve the socj-oeconomic development of several countries. 3. It was with this end in vj.ew that four international agencies of the United Nations systems (UNDP, FAO, the Wor1d Bank, WHO), supported by a group of donors, decided in 7974 to assist seven West African countries (Benin, Burkj-na Faso, C6te d'Ivoire, Ghana, Ma1i, Niger and Togo) affected by onchocerclaisis.

National Parks and Reserves are poorly managed, there is no overall strategy for PA management, legal and policy frameworks are inadequate, resources very limited and staff lacks the means, training and motivation to do their jobs. In the Oti-Mandouri Faunal Reserve and adjacent Kéran National Park, the boundaries of the PAs are not respected and local communities have invaded, installing crops, livestock pasture and villages and devastating habitats through unsustainable exploitation (bushfires, fuelwood and charcoal production, hunting). Conflicts between wildlife, farmers and herders are increasing, exacerbated by additional pressure from transhumant people and livestock and climate change. The once rich fauna of these two PA, which together form the Oti-Kéran-Mandouri (OKM) Complex (site focus of the Project), has largely disappeared. This threatens biodiversity on a regional ecosystem scale, as the sites form part of traditional elephant and other large mammal migration corridors.

  • International Tropical Timber Organization Project
    INTERNATIONAL TROPICAL TIMBER ORGANIZATION ITTO PROJECT PROPOSAL TITLE ESTABLISHING A GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF THE FOREST AREAS OF TOGO SERIAL NUMBER PD 581/10 Rev. 2(F) COMMITTEE REFORESTATION AND FOREST MANAGEMENT SUBMITTED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF TOGO ORIGINAL LANGUAGE FRENCH SUMMARY The forest sector of Togo is characterized by a lack of geo-spatial organization and insufficiently reliable data. This represents a barrier to planning and forestry development. Therefore it is important for Togo to organize and improve information on the forestry sector. This project will establish a Geographic Information System (GIS) in this sector, which, through the committed involvement of the entire forestry administration, will facilitate the operation of a centralized management system for the geo-spatial data of the forest sector; it will also enable the fast production of forest maps and facilitate the management of logging concession agreements. It will thus provide a decision tool for understanding ongoing forestry activities and the development of future policies to help sustainably manage forests in the country.
