Charlotte Kouna
After training at The Forestry School of Water and Forests in Cameroon, I worked in Cameroon from 1998 to 2002 at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and the International Center for Forestry Research (CIFOR). My work has focused on the study of solutions for sustainable agricultural production in Cameroon, Benin, Burkina Faso, and the analysis of the impact of the decentralization of forest management on local development in Cameroon. l support and assist communities in finding sustainable management of forest resources and the establishment of multi-stakeholder partnerships in forest management in Cameroon.
In October 2002, I took an academic - punctuated by contract duration determined in the context of sustainable forest management in Cameroon - sanctioned by the engineering diplomas in local development and cooperation projects, Master of Geography (specialty social geography and sustainable development). My research has focused on the analysis and study, on the one hand, of the impact of cooperation (decentralized) North-South between France (3 communes) and Mauritania (2 communes) in terms of local development and, secondly, the forest certification in Cameroon and Central Africa as a whole. I am currently in my second year of doctoral geography dealing with the issue of forest management in Cameroon and sustainable development. I try to answer the question, what are the mechanisms for decentralized management (innovations of the new forest policy in force in Cameroon since 1994) and private forests in Cameroon and the socio-economic and environmental induced in the region Yokadouma (South-East Cameroon), which concentrated the majority of forest management units?
