Villagers in Logging Camp
A girl at her house in the village of Yafunga. Industrial logging is done by SAFBOIS in the rainforest surrounding many small communities including this village of Yafunga. Three years after the social responsibility contract was drawn by SAFBOIS, the construction of the school, which is in the contract, is not complete. To help lift the village out of poverty, SAFBOIS also promised to build a health clinic but its construction has not started. The World Bank and other donors view logging as a way to alleviate poverty and promote economic development. Congo has the second largest rainforest in the world, and approximately 40 million people in the DRC depend on the rainforest for their basic needs, such as medicine, food or shelter.
