Is IFMP a tourism project?
IFMP was engaged in promoting the development of nature-oriented tourism as one of many activities deployed to conserve the natural afro-montane forests. It supported and coordinated the service providers on a non-profit basis and did not engage in any commercial operation. The direct recipients of the visitors’ payments are the various service providers (guides, camp keepers, horse providers etc.). The IFMP has now handed over all the tourism operations, including bookings, to locally organized guide associations who are closely working with the forest users group union.
