Abstract: This case study discusses how a grant for a project combining community development and forest co-management activities has proved vital in generating support from local communities and government to conserve Afi Mountain and its endangered wildlife. The project was linked to a rehabilitation and breeding centre for the drill, Africa’s most threatened primate species. Since 1994, IUCN NL has managed several small grants funds for NGOs in the South that are active in ecosystem and biodiversity management that at the same time benefits local communities.
