AWF is soliciting proposals from Local NGOs in Cameroon to support the implementation of the project’s component 3 activities that focus on advancing sustainable forest management (SFM) through non-timber forest products (NTFP) and hardwood value chains in the TRIDOM landscape.
The local NGOs to be recruited will address the impacts of unsustainable resource use by local communities and private sector actors by promoting their increased engagement in local-level models for SFM that engage IPLCs and the private sector. The activities described under this component are to be executed in the TRIDOM, thus a need for local NGOs working in the zone to support implementation on the ground.
