This programme seeks to bring better health services to the rural poor and to support them to live in harmony with nature in Africa. It is built around the current issues related to the management of Africa’s most precious renewable natural resource which is the forest; pays sufficient attention to Africa’s wildlife increasingly threatened by poaching and habitat loss, particularly large mammals; and facilitate access to basic public health services.
The Nature, People and Health Programme capitalises on the market for environmental services and particularly on the current and future opportunities offered by the international carbon finance and climate change to promote the social and economic development of the marginalised human populations. It also builds on ACDEF network to raise awareness globally, and mobilize resources to improve basic public health services in rural Africa.
There has never been better opportunity than this one to promote sustainable development in Africa from Africa’s resources.
We strongly invite you to explore the different components of our Nature, People and Health Programme to learn how ACDEF is facilitating this crucial process.
