Objectif général

The purpose of this project is to support a conservation effort in communities around the Biruwe-Nkuba Conservation Area, eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, by promoting small-scale farming among families with hunters. The project is intended to conserve a population of Grauer’s gorillas that occur outside of a formal protected area, as well as other species like giant pangolins, that are threatened by unsustainable hunting for the commercial bushmeat trade.
Objectif spécifique
Assessment of bushmeat hunting (Nkuba village) and the proportion bushmeat consumed versus sold in markets in town (Biruwe, Mubi, and Mabeka) to understand the economic importance of the bushmeat trade to community members
Objectif spécifique
Economic analysis of farmed meat and crops to determine the volume, price, and productivity needed from agriculture to compete with bushmeat hunting as a livelihood
Objectif spécifique
Pilot agreements with four families to stop hunting in return for small livestock and small farm assistance.
