On March 9-10, RRI?s Communications and Outreach team organized, in collaboration with Cameroon Ecology, a site visit to selected villages in Southern Cameroon for five journalists representing regional and global media outlets. The visit?s objective was for the journalists to hear from community representatives from villages that almost lost their land for a logging concession, but then received a reprieve from the government ? illustrating the up and down nature of the struggle to secure the land tenure of rural communities in Africa.?Today, these villages still have no permanent guarantees of land rights. The visit was praised by the journalists, who have now agreed to work together in Cameroon to continue raising awareness of community land rights violations in the country.
