GABON

Key milestones and progress through APOI

  • INCREASING DEFORESTATION FREE PRODUCTION:

    Training national stakeholders on HCV, HCS and FPIC; and how to implement requirements, so they can benefit from the expansion of oil palm and participate in the market.

  • MEETING INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS:

    Complying with international standards such as RSPO, HCV and HCS, Gabon has also made them relevant with the RSPO National Interpretation.

  • PROTECTING FOREST HERITAGE:

    Gabon’s model includes allocating land to integrate HCV and HCS area preservation. Gabon endorsed RSPO as a national norm and adopted a national guideline for oil palm development applicable to other agricultural commodities.
