Spotlight on the Transboundary Law Enforcement Technical Committee Between Liberia and Côte d’Ivoire

The West Africa Biodiversity and Climate Change (WA BiCC) program and its grantee, Wild Chimpanzee Foundation (WCF), supported transboundary collaboration between Liberia and Cote d’Ivoire for the Taï-Grebo-Krahn-Sapo (TGKS) forest landscape. In November 2018, WCF facilitated the establishment of the transboundary law enforcement technical committee (TLETC) under the TGKS bilateral steering committee. The TLETC supports effective management of the three protected areas in the TGKS landscape—Taï National Park in Cote d’Ivoire and Grebo-Krahn and Sapo National Parks in Liberia—and serves as a platform for consistent dialogue around forest conservation and management issues. This vignette showcases the recent achievements in countering wildlife trafficking and trade through increased collaboration, learning, and adaptive management within the TLETC.
