Objectives

The CBFP works in close relationship with the Central African Forests Commission (COMIFAC), the regional body in charge of forest and environmental policy, coordination and harmonisation, with the objective to promote the conservation and sustainable management of the Congo basin's forest ecosystems.

CBFP members support the implementation of COMIFAC's regional Convergence Plan and the 1999 Yaoundé Declaration by

♦ protecting the region's biodiversity 
♦ promoting good forest governance and
♦ improving the population's living standards.

In the spirit of the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, which is mirrored in CBFP's cooperation framework, the objective of the partnership is to raise the effectiveness of the partners' programs and initiatives, through improved communication and collaboration.
