Watch this space for regular updates (beginning January 2018 when the new project starts) about our activities and the impact these have for local people, the environment, and of course the chimpanzees.

THANK YOU & PANT HOOTS TO YOU ALL!!!!!

Indigenous Maesopsis seedlings in BCCP's tree nursery. With EOCA's funding we'll raise and plant 200,000 indigenous tree seedlings for enrichment planting next year. In addition, we'll plant 200,000 trees for household woodlots (providing an alternative source of wood and income) and farmers will plant 200,000 coffee trees as a 'chimp friendly' alternative livelihood -- reducing their need to cut down the natural forest home of the chimpanzees to raise cash.
