22 Mains Constraints/Threats Insufficiency of legal and institutional framework Insufficiency of human resource Insufficiency of marketing and communication Lack of enterprise approach in each Protected Area Insufficiency of financial resources
23 4 Way forward 23
24 What we need now? To reinforce capacities of Central African Protected Areas Network (RAPAC) To elaborate business plan of each protected area To develop marketing and communication To develop economy of protected areas (ex. ecotourism) To develop more economic activities for riverain populations To find technical and financial partners in out of Central Africa
