A meeting took place on 13th August at the conference in the Governor’s office to adopt a budget for the second semester.
Committee members of the Sectorial Green Forest Programme, known by its French acronym as PSFE, have sought ways to fight against the issues affecting the environment and the forests in Cameroon and the Littoral Region in particular.
The meeting which took place at the governor’s office was also intended for members to seek to understand the difficulties of the PSFE programme, adopt a budget which will be sent to government to execute 2010 projects.
The PSFE is a new approach integrated in the concept of sustainable development and a reference to conservation, management and sustainable forest exploitation. It was created in 2004 when government came up the policy of the fight against poverty, decentralisation and good governance.
The programme has four parts which have to do with, Sustainable forest management for production and to valorise forest products, sustainable management of biodiversity and the fauna, Management of the community Forest and Fauna resources and institutional reinforcement , training and research. The global vision of the programme is to reinforce the economic, ecology and social functioning of ecosystems in Cameroon through sustainable management of its forest resources.
The resource person, Alphonse Marfor Tangala, Service Head of Programmes and projects at the Ministry of Forestry and Fauna, said the structures which also have leaders. He said each leader has to present his plan of action and budget and defend it before the committee for approval. He added that it is the committee which decides the budget for each region.
Some of the problems which the execution process faced in the first semester is issues like lack of trees in littoral which the Ministry of Forestry is in support of the work of the Douala City Council in the tree planting exercise, lack of canoes to go to the mangrove zones, insufficient staff which makes them seem absent in the field.
The Littoral Regional Delegate of the Forest and Fauna said in the first semester their execution was 47 percent while the budget was 80 percent. He said their mission now is to assure sustainable forest resources, plant more trees and fight against illegal exploitation of the forests and participation of the population in resource management.
