- Project descriptionThe Tayna/Kisimba Ikobo REDD project is inserted in the community conservation program initiated by CI in 2003 which integrates development and conservation by providing livelihoods and local development projects. The program has already created a community managed university, the Tayna Center for Conservation Biology (TCCB), which grants degrees in conservation biology (200 already granted). This university is located in a "conservation action village" (Kasugho), adjacent to the Tayna Reserve. It has a health clinic, a community-run radio station and a hydroelectric plant. A gorilla rehabilitation center is under construction. The REDD+ project aims to implement additional activities in order to reduce pressure on the forests of the Reserves.
