Maringa-Lopori-Wamba Livelihoods and GIS Workshop
Basankusu, DRC, January 20 – 27 2008
A consortium of partners working in the Maringa-Lopori-Wamba (MLW) Landscape attended a week-long workshop in Basankusu, Democratic Republic of Congo in late January 2008. Twenty-six participants attended from ten partner organizations and institutions.
The goal of the week-long meeting was to share progress on various activities undertaken by the partners within the landscape and to assess impacts of priority interventions from MLW activities on livelihoods and biodiversity. Example MLW activities include encouragement of sustainable livelihoods, engagement in sustainable land-use planning and zoning, and forest monitoring.
