Cameroon Biodiversity Protection Program

The Cameroon Biodiversity Protection Program (CBPP) is dedicated to improving the conservation of Nigeria-Cameroon (NC) chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes ellioti) at Mbam & Djerem National Park (MDNP) in central Cameroon. 

CBPP engages local researchers and communities in protection and education efforts to increase local professional capacity.
