Consolidate achievements from the first phase of CEPF funding of the Tiwai Island Tourism initiative in Sierra Leone and the Nimba Hunting and Bushmeat Initiative in Guinea and scale these up in Seringbara and Zoo around Nimba and the most appropriate locations in the Upper Guinean Forests. Document successful interventions in pilot community-based organizations and define the potential for introducing well-researched livelihood activities as alternatives to bushmeat hunting and trade.
