Certified forests, refuges for Congolese wildlife

The latest wildlife survey in the Ndoki-Likouala landscape reveals a powerful finding: Forest concessions certified by the FSC (like those managed by CIB) host higher densities of forest elephants, gorillas, and ungulates than unmanaged areas.

This success is no accident. It's the result of a long-term innovative partnership (PROGEP) between the government, industry (CIB), and conservationists (WCS), proving that responsible management makes a real difference for wildlife.
