コンゴ盆地は世界第2位の熱帯雨林であり、気候調整や炭素隔離に重要な役割を果たすが、森林減少や違法伐採などの人為的圧力にさらされている。ブルーファンドは国際資金の動員とマルチステークホルダーガバナンスを促進するが、制度的制約や調整不足、地域参加の低さが課題である。本研究は中央アフリカの気候資金における戦略的梃子としてのポテンシャルと、ガバナンス強化の必要性を指摘する。
English
The Congo Basin, the world's second-largest tropical rainforest, plays a critical role in climate regulation and carbon sequestration but faces deforestation from anthropogenic pressures. The Blue Fund mobilizes international financing and promotes multi-stakeholder governance, yet its effectiveness is limited by institutional constraints and low community participation. The study highlights the fund's strategic potential for climate finance in Central Africa while emphasizing the need for stronger governance and coordination.

日本のGX文脈において
日本にとって直接的関係は薄いが、途上国における気候資金調達メカニズムの事例として参考になる。特に、森林保全と資金メカニズムの統合は、日本の二国間クレジット制度（JCM）や森林炭素吸収源プロジェクトとの比較検討に資する。
In the global GX context
This paper adds a regional case study on climate finance governance in the Congo Basin, relevant for global discussions on REDD+ and forest-based carbon markets. While not directly tied to major disclosure frameworks, it offers insights into multi-stakeholder funding mechanisms and institutional challenges that inform international climate policy.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:A case study on the institutional and governance challenges of a climate fund in a critical forest region, offering lessons for similar mechanisms globally.
🏛政策担当者:Insights on the need for stronger governance and community participation in climate finance mechanisms, relevant for designing REDD+ or forest carbon projects.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract : The Congo Basin is the world’s second-largest tropical rainforest after the Amazon. It spans approximately 1.8 million km², accounting for nearly half of the total area of the river basin. This forested region is distributed across six Central African countries, namely Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cameroon, and the Central African Republic (Megevand et al., 2012). This ecosystem plays a critical role in global climate regulation, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity conservation. However, it is increasingly exposed to anthropogenic pressures, including deforestation estimated at 0.3–0.5% per year, illegal logging, agricultural expansion, and the impacts of climate change (CICOS, 2021; FAO, 2020).. The methodology relies on a mixed approach combining a systematic scientific literature review, documentary analysis of institutional reports (CBFC-CBBF, CAFC, DBCAS), and case studies of funded projects. Results indicate that the Blue Fund facilitates the mobilization of international financing and promotes multi-stakeholder governance. However, its effectiveness remains limited by institutional constraints, insufficient coordination, and still-low community participation. The study concludes that the Blue Fund constitutes a strategic lever for climate finance in Central Africa, while highlighting the need to strengthen governance, the implication of local communities, and the efficiency of financial instruments.
