コンゴ盆地ブルーファンドは、中央アフリカ6カ国にまたがる世界第2の熱帯雨林の保全を目的とした気候ファイナンスメカニズムである。本論文は、混合手法を用いて同基金の有効性を評価し、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一方、制度的制約やコミュニティ参加の低さが課題であると指摘する。基金を気候ファイナンスの戦略的レバーと位置づけつつ、ガバナンス強化と地域参加の必要性を強調する。
English
This paper evaluates the Congo Basin Blue Fund, a climate finance mechanism for the world's second-largest rainforest. Using mixed methods, it finds the fund mobilizes international financing and promotes multi-stakeholder governance, but faces institutional constraints and low community participation. It concludes the fund is a strategic lever for climate finance in Central Africa, requiring stronger governance and local involvement.

日本のGX文脈において
日本国内では直接的な関連は薄いが、途上国向け気候ファイナンスの課題(制度・参加)は日本のODAや二国間クレジット制度(JCM)の運用にも示唆を与える。また、森林保全と気候変動のリンクは、日本の森林吸収源対策やカーボン・オフセット制度の参考となり得る。
In the global GX context
This paper provides a case study of a regional climate finance mechanism for rainforest conservation, relevant to global discussions on REDD+, results-based payments, and the Green Climate Fund. It highlights governance challenges and community participation issues common to many developing-country climate initiatives.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Researchers in climate finance and forest conservation can learn about the Blue Fund's governance and effectiveness as a case of multi-country climate finance architecture.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers in Central African countries and international climate finance institutions can use these findings to improve fund design and community engagement.
📄 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.
