Students of the 5th bath of the Professional Masters in Protected Area Management and Biosphere Reserve Management at the Ecole Régionale Post-Universitaire d'Aménagement et de Gestion Intégrés des Forêts et Territoire Tropicaux (ERAIFT) in Kinshasa, DRC, who are specialising at the Ecole de Faune de Garoua (EFG) as part of their sub-regional mobility, regularly carry out practical work in protected areas at the end of their theoretical courses. After spending three weeks in the Bénoué Biosphere Reserve in the savannah areas last October, they are currently in the Dja Biosphere Reserve in the equatorial forest for the period from 26 December 2024 to 16 January 2025. There are twenty-three (23) students in all, from eight (08) African countries (Benin, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Niger, CAR, Senegal and Togo). The main objective of this study trip is to enable GAP/GRB learners to link theory to practice through a good knowledge of field realities and to be able to understand the complexity of management in different ecosystems (forest/savannah).
