Lutte contre le braconnage et valorisation des clairières du terroir villageois de Bossouaka
The village terroir of Bossouaka located in the southern periphery of the Odzala-Kokoua National Park (PNOK), in the PNOK - Lossi Gorilla Sanctuary (SGL) corridor is the beneficiary of the Project. Local communities are Bantu. The following activities are carried out: * Ensure continuous community surveillance of the elephant / gorilla clearing of Bossouaka, adjacent to the land of settlements and its connecting corridor with the Odzala-Kokoua National Park (PNOK), located in Mbomo district; * Develop pig production and sharecropping; * Promote a sedentary subsistence agriculture, compatible with the conservation of biodiversity. The expected results are: the Securing of biotopes with as indicator the Probability of observation of Large Mammals in clearings and corridors connecting them; Food security by reducing the hunting effort due to the bushmeat trade; Increasing agricultural yields and pig farming, providing an alternative source of income. About twenty households are mobilized with a variation in women and young people. The proximity of the Base infrastructures of the Odzala Kokoua National Park is a real asset for the development of community ecotourism.

Project Characteristics and Results
Policy Influence
Au Congo, le développement rural à travers l'action coopérative a donné un résultat mitigé eu égard à son accaparation par les leaders aux détriment des autres membres. L'approche de mise en ?uvre des micro-projets SGP a permis par l'entremise des engagements de toutes les parties prenantes à établir dans la mise en ?uvre, une meilleure répartition des intrants, une parfaite appropriation et un bon partage des bénéfices du Projet par tous les membres bénéficiaires de la subvention. Aussi cette méthode a permis sur le plan pratique de faire réduire à la fois la pauvreté et la pression sur la biodiversité.
Notable Community Participation
Before the project, young people lived mainly from poaching. As part of the Project, new opportunities have been offered in the development of sectors of income-generating activities compatible with the conservation of biodiversity.
