How is Danzer Group helping the cause of sustainable forest management in Africa?
In many countries of West and Central Africa, the wood industry is one of the most important resources for sustainable economic development. In its forest concessions in the Congo Basin, Danzer Group not only pursues sustainable forest management, but also supports the development of an efficient domestic wood industry and wood-processing operations which it has established in these areas, as well as providing training and education for skilled workers in the locality. Danzer Group is one of the very important investors in the Republic of Congo and the Democratic Republic of Congo. This helps combat poverty, since the jobs thus created give the local population a sustainable means of livelihood.
