Conservation et intégration des communiqués dans la protection des éléphants Ogooué-Lékéti
The Simombondo and Mavounoungou Village Development Project (PDSM), is located in the Zanaga sub-prefecture on the outskirts of the Ogooé Lékéti National Park. It is a hotspot for elephant poaching for ivory and bushmeat trafficking. The local population is made up only of Bantu. This project is part of the reduction of poverty and pressure on biodiversity through the following activities: * Ensure continuous community surveillance of two elephant clearings adjacent to the village land of Mavounoungou; * Develop the IGA sector for the reduction of poverty and pressure on biodiversity, including pig production and sharecropping; * Facilitate the installation of an ecotourism operator. The expected results are: the Securing of biotopes with as indicator the Probability of observation of Large Mammals in clearings and the corridors connecting them; Food security, with the reduction of the hunting effort as an indicator, following the gradual decrease in the hunting meat trade. Increasing agricultural yields and placing on the market quantities of meat from pig production and sharecropping. The size of the households mobilized with variation in women, young people is located at about twenty households.

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.
