To promote, support and guide logging companies that understand how good logging practices can lead to a market advantage, WWF has set up GFTN - Central Africa for responsible forest management and trade.
GFTN-Central Africa - part of WWF's Global Forest & Trade Network (GFTN) - is a platform for partnership between forest managers/ processors and other stakeholders committed to:
- responsible forest management
- credible and independent certification of forest management and chain of custody.
GFTN-Central Africa facilitates access to markets where logging companies can sell their goods, and provides technical and financial support to help companies achieve certification.
GFTN-Central Africa provide services for many countries in the central africa region, including Cameroon, Central Africa Republic, DR COngo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, and the Republic of Congo.
