Living Earth Foundation, Bristol Zoo Gardens and Fondation Camerounaise de la Terre Vivante have been working in partnership with communities living in and around the Dja Biosphere Reserve in Cameroon to make sure that they have a voice in the conservation and development debates that will shape their future. In this video, you can find out more about these forest-based communities and the challenges that they face.

Forest road in Réserve du Dja, Cameroon
I'm travelling through thick rainforest in Réserve du Dja, Cameroon. Transportation is with a moto - motorbike-taxi. Fortunately, it wasn't so muddy as it's normally. In June it's much worse! I was travelling there in the month of March.
Part 2 - Poaching around the Dja Reserve.mov
Living Earth Foundation and Bristol Zoo Gardens have been working with local NGO - Fondation Camerounaise de la Terre Vivante - to address the bushmeat crisis in Cameroon. More and more wild animals - including baboons, gorillas and chimpanzees- are being killed and sold for food. In this video, community leaders from around the Dja Reserve discuss the impact that commercial poaching is having on their forest and suggest ways forward. Above all, they emphasise the importance of ensuring that the voices of those living in - and dependent on - the forest, are included in the debates.
