About this project
The Gola Rainforest is a catalyst for peace, prosperity, and national pride in Sierra Leone. It conserves globally important habitats in the 70,000-hectare Gola Rainforest National Park and Greater Gola Landscape, the largest remaining area of Upper Guinea rainforest in Sierra Leone. It is a biodiversity hotspot and is home to thousands of bird, butterfly, plant, and mammal species, including chimpanzees, forest elephants, and the enigmatic pygmy hippo. Leading the way towards a sustainably managed landscape spanning Liberia and Sierra Leone of over 350,000 ha, the project ensures that communities are active stewards of the forests that maintain and enhance their lives.
