	Bakossi National Park is under the administration of the Cameroonian Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife (MINFOF), which is supported by the PSMNR-SWR development program and follows a collaborative management approach (PSMNR-SWR n.d.). In addition to support for infrastructure, households, education and training, this also includes protection activities such as demarcation and patrolling, as well as bio-monitoring ([[#R00069\|Kupsch et al. 2024]]). In addition to communities and their members, community-based organizations are also involved in management. Bakossi National Park has been included in the PSMNR-SWR development scheme in 2018. Before it was part of the WWF coastal forests programme (WWF), however, little is documented on the conservation activities from that time.
