| Summary: | The Global Environment Facility (GEF)
supported High Forest Biodiversity Conservation Project
intended to increase the ecological security of globally
significant biological resources, especially within
threatened tropical moist forest ecosystems. The project
aimed to establish effective systems for the protection of
30 Globally Significant Biodiversity Areas (GSBAs) in all
tropical forest biomes in Ghana in four regions within the
high forest zone - namely, Ashanti, Eastern, Central, and
Western regions. The project focused on communities living
at the periphery of these GSBAs. |
