The Congo rainforest spans across 6 countries in Central Africa and is the world's second largest rainforest, accounting for 18% of the world's remaining rainforests. The forest is home to some unique species including the pygmy chimpanzee and the okapi, but these species are threatened by the bushmeat trade and deforestation.

About the Spotlight

The Spotlight section offers an insight into issues such as shark finning, deforestation in the rainforests and the decline of coral reefs. Each spotlight page, features 5 different paragraphs or sections focusing on different aspects of an issue e.g. the 'Modern Slavery' spotlights 5 sections are: bonded labour, forced labour, child labour, human trafficking and sexual exploitation. To conclude each spotlight page, we feature actions which each of us can do to reduce the prevalence of a certain issue in our world.
