Protecting and Restoring Forest Carbon
in Tropical Africa: a guide for donors and
funders is published by
The Forests Philanthropy Action Network
(FPAN), a UK registered charity formed
in 2008 to help coordinate and inform
philanthropic support on the whole
range of global forest issues.
The report is the culmination of nearly two
years of desk and field research, funded by
the Pure Climate Foundation, the David &
Lucile Packard Foundation, the Leventis
family, the Linden Trust for Conservation,
and the Wetland Trust.
The aim is to provide an introduction
and some initial guidance on a broad and
complex topic: which interventions to protect
and restore Africa’s tropical forest carbon
are likely to be successful and under what
circumstances; and how donors and
funders can engage most effectively.
