| dc.description | Central African countries engage to increase their climate ambition, maintain/stabilize their forest cover and thus continue to stock the equivalent of approximately 70 GT of C. The Central African rainforest will thus continue to provide livelihoods to 60 million people and maintain regional rainfall patterns. This capacity of the Central African rainforest is under threat mainly due to population increase and expansion of agriculture, so the challenge is to change the production systems of tens of millions of poor households, ensure their food security and slow down the unsustainable population increase. | en_US |
