ICERD : INTERNATIONAL CENTRE OF ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES AND RESEARCH FOR DEVELOPMENT (Centre International d’études et de Recherche en Environnement pour Le Développement), Société Anonyme à Responsabilité Limitée, est un institut de recherche privé, spécialisé dans les études détaillées, dans les domaines de l’agriculture, de l’environnement, des mines, ainsi que dans l’étude des terrains pour la construction d’ouvrages et infrastructures d’envergure, tout en préconisant un développement harmonieux et respectueux des écosystèmes naturels.

 

L’ICERD offre également à travers ses laboratoires, de multiples services dans plusieurs domaines : géochimie, géotechnique, hydrogéologie, pédologie, agronomie et biologie, grâce à ses équipements scientifiques de pointe et à son personnel hautement expérimenté. Des experts dans divers domaines, toujours disponibles assurent le service conseil, prodiguant à plein temps, des recommandations utiles aux agriculteurs, aux exploitants des forêts et mines, aux constructeurs et aux aménageurs. Les interventions du Centre peuvent comporter à la demande, une prospection sur le terrain afin d’obtenir des informations complémentaires.

ICERD et ses membres partagent, en effet, une même conviction, celle du rôle essentiel des agricultures familiales dans la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle, le développement territorial et la préservation de l’environnement. Son rôle est de mieux faire connaître les réalités des acteurs et actrices du monde rural, particulièrement en Afrique du Centrale mais aussi de mieux comprendre les implications pour les populations rurales d’Afrique des changements globaux (changement climatique, évolutions démographiques, enjeux géopolitiques, etc.). ICERD reste l’institution sous régionale de référence en matière d’harmonisation des politiques forestières et environnementales en Afrique Centrale dont la mission est d’orienter, coordonner et prendre des décisions sur les actions et initiatives sous régionales dans le domaine de la conservation et de la
gestion durable des écosystèmes forestiers.

 

OBJECTIFS D’ICERD CAMEROON

ICERD a pour objectif majeur de contribuer à un développement Global durable en apportant une réponse adaptée à chaque problème en fonction de l’environnement physique, climatique. Tout en vulgarisant et diffusant des actions innovantes et pertinentes pour un développement harmonieux et durable rural basé sur une agriculture durable et préservant les exploitations familiales.

 

 

Les principaux objectifs de l’ICERD sont :

  • Promouvoir la mise en place et la diffusion d’actions innovantes et pertinentes pour un développement rural basé sur une agriculture durable, préservant l’environnement. Dans le domaine agricole ;
  • Partage la Vision stratégique du Cameroun à l’horizon 2035 qui entend transformer l’environnement socioéconomique actuel structuré en exploitations familiales de petite et moyenne importance, en une agriculture moderne de grande productivité. Cette transformation consacrera l’avènement de grandes exploitations fédérées mécanisées comprenant plusieurs exploitants regroupés en organisations ou coopératives afin d’alimenter les usines de transformation.
  • Accompagner le gouvernement, en fournissant un encadrement adéquat dans l’utilisation de technologies à forte productivité, en mettant un accent sur la préservation des écosystèmes naturels à travers la vulgarisation des résultats d’une recherche scientifique bien adaptée aux problèmes spécifiques de nos écosystèmes ;
  • Offrir ainsi aux acteurs du monde rural au Cameroun d’Afrique Centrale et partout dans le monde des outils adaptés pour mieux gérer les effets des changements globaux (changement climatique, évolutions démographique et sociopolitique.).

 

MISSIONS D’ICERD CAMEROON

L’ICERD intervient et apporte ses compétences par cinq missions complémentaires :

  • Intensifier et valoriser les partenariats recherche – paysan pour développer des systèmes de production adaptés et à haut rendement
  • Capitaliser et valoriser les résultats de recherche ainsi que les expériences et savoirs locaux, mutualiser toutes ces connaissances pour mieux aborder le processus de modernisation.
  • Etablir un dialogue et promouvoir le débat : mettre en relation les personnes, les énergies, les idées et les connaissances pour partager et produire les connaissances adéquates.
  • Renforcer les compétences des agents locaux, des agriculteurs et partenaires en matière de gestion rationnelle des ressources naturelles et des connaissances, cœur de métier de l’ICERD.
  • Développer une recherche conjointe pour l’émergence d’une agriculture industrielle mais soucieuse de l’environnement.

 

LES GRANDS CHAMPS D’ICERD CAMEROON

Le champ d’activité de l’ICERD porte sur un développement harmonieux et sain, respectueux de l’environnement naturel. L’exploitation des ressources naturelles sans détruire les écosystèmes vitaux terrestres et aquatiques. Dans le vaste domaine du développement global, l’ICERD à prioriser cinq grands axes de travail :

  • Intensification de la production agricole et halieutique et préservation des écosystèmes naturels ;
  • Education des divers acteurs dans l’exploitation des ressources naturelles pour l’industrie.
  • Recherche de financements agricoles et ruraux
  • Filières agricoles prioritaires, chaines de valeur pertinentes et accès au marché
  • Adaptation des exploitations familiales agricoles et pastorales à l’agro industrialisation.

Depuis 2021, L’ICERD travaille avec le Ministère de l’Agriculture et du Développement Rural (MINADER) sur l’intensification de l’agriculture et la judicieuse modernisation des exploitations paysannes.
