slide1. Closing meeting
Kuala Lumpur, Sheraton Imperial Hotel,
Kuala Lumpur, Malaisia,
5th-7th October 2022
Pr Jean Lagarde BETTI
Regional Coordinator for Africa CITES Tree Species Programme in Africa (CTSP/Africa)<br>
slide2. CTSP Project status in Africa: overview 6 single-country projects
3 subregional (2 tri-national and 1 bi-national ) projects;
12 countries<br>
slide3. CTSP Project status: overview Work areas:
Non-detriment Findings (NDF)
Marking & traceability (incl. livelihoods)
Identification
Capacity-building & governance NDF (1.15) Marking (0.83) Identification (0.65) Cap.-building (0.73) Tech. coop (0.58)<br>
slide4. Species coverage – All species are included in App. II Guibourtia spp. - African rosewood
Osyris lanceolata - African sandalwood
Pericopsis elata - African teak – Afromosia – assamela
Prunus africana - African cherry
Pterocarpus erinaceus – African rosewood<br>
slide5. Africa - conclusions State of the art on research, harvesting, management, and control well established for each target tree species in each country;
Strategic action plans for some countries (Côte d’Ivoire, Gabon, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, …) or detail management plans for other countries (Burundi, Benin, Togo, Cameroon, DRC, , ) well done;
Identification guides produced for Guibourtia spp, Pericopsis elata, and Pterocarpus erinaceus;
NDF drafted and export quota defined based on management inventories for Prunus africana (Cameroon and DRC) and Guibourtia spp (DRC and Gabon) or based on exploitation inventories for Pericopsis elata (DRC);
Domestication/plantation activities initiated on Prunus africana (Burundi) and Pterocarpus erinaceus (Côte d’Ivoire)
Research results of the Program defended in term of Msc (Burundi, Cameroon), PhD (Cameroon), or published in peer review journals (Cameroon).<br>
slide6. Africa – Way forward Assisting range countries in the implementation of guidelines of NDFs and SMPs remains a key issue to be tackled clearly for a future programme as many concerns have been observed on the little improvement of livelihoods of local communities and little respect of established standards/norms in the field by trade companies and harvesters;
The implementation of the guidelines of SMPs/NDFs includes: conducting every year systematic inventories of exploitable trees in annual plots (exploitation inventories), enforcing the control and monitoring scheme, training people on how to harvest sustainably the product, conducting research as to better refine management parameters;
Having in mind some achievements encountered in this first phase, the work on new listing tree species will be logically scheduled as follow: (1) establishing a clear state-of-the art on aspects related to the research (biology, ecology, phenology, …), harvesting regime, management measures, processing, transport, and export, and (2) based on the results of the assessment conducted (state-of-the-art), build a roadmap/action plan presenting priority needs and activities to be conducted during the program.
Increase number of species and countries<br>
