TERRESIL - Territorial approach as a lever for socio-environmental resilience in 3 African landscapes of priority interest for biodiversity
Partners
Main goals
In order to provide territorial and local responses to forest preservation issues, the program aims to develop and consolidate a "landscape" approach in the management of natural and rural areas of priority interest for biodiversity. It is part of the continuity of the REDD+ Project of the Mé (PRM) and is in synergy with the projects of sustainable territories in progress in the landscapes of the Biological Diversity Zone of Mount Tingui (PAP-BIO) in Côte d'Ivoire and the PONASI complex in Burkina Faso (PONASI - WAKANDA) that the FFGE is co-financing.
Specific objectives
SO1. Strengthen concerted territorial planning that fully integrates biodiversity conservation issues
SO2. Strengthen the management of protected areas and their role at the landscape level
SO3. Supporting the transition of production methods and investment in natural capital
SO4. Measuring the impact of the project and building a "Zero Deforestation Territory" standard
Beneficiaries
Inhabitants and farmers of the region who constitute the populations of the target landscapes of Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire. In particular, will be targeted:
- Group of agro-pastoralists and artisans constituting the main animators of the local economy
- Group of grassroots community organizations
- Group of representatives of public administrations
- The local populations of the Mabi-Yaya Natural Reserve
- The local populations of Mount Tingui and the adjoining PNC, including transhumant herders
- Sectoral associations, particularly farmers, collectors and herders
