Summary
This project will strengthen law enforcement capacity to reduce illegal wildlife trade in the Dja and Ngoyla reserves in southeast Cameroon. Exacerbated by weak law enforcement coordination and lacking local sustainable livelihoods, illegal wildlife trade continues to flourish, threatening the survival of key endangered and threatened species. In addition to strengthening law enforcement capacity, this project will support the development of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) and ecotourism markets for local livelihoods, ultimately
reducing a key driver of illegal wildlife trade.
The UK remains committed to playing a significant role in the world, in our national interest, in the interests of the poorest, and to ensure a liveable planet.
