Cameroon - Living Earth Foundation
Cameroon is a country rich in immense biodiversity, with vegetation varying from the mangrove swamps on its southern Atlantic coast to humid rainforests, savannah grasslands and the Sahel in the north. However, its natural resources are under great threat from economic, political, environmental and social pressures. Deforestation, the loss of biodiversity, soil degradation, pollution, poverty, extreme seasonal floods through to poor waste management in industrial and urban centres, are just some of the environmental issues currently facing Cameroon.
Living Earth has been working in Cameroon for over twenty years, with Fondation Camerounaise de la Terre Vivante (FCTV) the key local partner of Living Earth in Cameroon. Originally established in 1996 under the name Living Earth Cameroon, FCTV was formally registered as an independent Cameroonian non Government organisation in Cameroon in 2003 before changing its name to Foundation Camerounaise de la Terre Vivante in 2008.
