- Additional Information on Eligibility
- Single Source Justification: Agence Nationale des Parcs Nationaux (ANPN), the Gabon National Parks Agency, is a unique parastatal agency granted financial and technical independence by the Gabonese law that created it. ANPN is charged with transforming Gabon's national parks network into a global model for protected areas management. This charge includes stimulating the development of a tourism industry, combining sustainable development and conservation to enhance, rather than simply maintaining the geophysical character of a tourism site. ANPN is responsible for the management of Gabon's 13 national parks and their buffer zones. ANPN's special role in government puts it in the best position to conserve Gabon's wildlife heritage and to become a premier African parks agency within five years. ANPN is best poised to respond to immediate wildlife threats, including poaching and the impacts of extractive industries in national parks and their surrounding buffer zones. ANPN will build their institutional capacity to improve national park and buffer zone management in Gabon.
