Evidence snapshot for Gabon
Gabon possesses substantial forest resources—23.6 million hectares (88% of its territory) with deforestation below 0.08% annually since 1990—and has earned results-based climate finance, receiving US$17M for 2016–2017 forest-carbon reductions with up to US$150M foreseen through 2025. The country is advancing digital public services through a US$68.5M World Bank–financed project that relaunched electronic ID issuance in June 2024, though nationwide rollout remains incomplete. A 2016 gender-parity law requiring 30% women in legislative candidate lists and senior posts failed to achieve its target, with women's parliamentary representation stagnating at 14–17% before the 2023 coup disrupted the electoral system entirely.
