A new study reveals compelling evidence that forests certified by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) in Gabon and the Republic of Congo harbour a higher abundance of larger mammals and critically endangered species, such as gorillas and elephants, compared to non-FSC certified forests.

A team from FSC Africa attended the conference on Accelerating Nature-based Solutions convened in Livingstone, Zambia in March. The conference was organised by the Global Evergreening alliance (GEA) in association with Conservation International and other sponsors. 

The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) Eastern Africa is thrilled to announce Damaris Nyambura, a student at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), Kenya, as the winner of the FSC Campus Challenge.
