In May 2012, along the margins of the Celebration of the International Day of Biodiversity, Cameroon launched the revision of its maiden National Biodiversity Strategy Action Plan. This document, presented as a second version of Cameroon’s National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP II) is the outcome of this process.
The validation of NBSAP II demonstrates the recognition of Cameroons rich biodiversity as an invaluable natural asset for the wellbeing and development of its people, and the need to safeguard this asset. This document further consolidates the commitment of the Government within the framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity to develop a planning tool that translates into national reality, the global vision of living in harmony with nature where man benefits from biodiversity while ensuring an ecological sustainability.
