Since its inception, OSFAC provides Capacity building countries of Central Africa in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing and GPS as well as technical support to all institutions that request. 869 persons, separately, from the universities (mainly the University of Kinshasa where the GIS Laboratory OSFAC is installed), national agencies, CARPE partners and international agencies have benefited from one or more training sessions with the OSFAC.

General diagnostic training organized from 2005 to 2010: 141 is the number of training courses organized by OSFAC all types (vocational training, practical work, internships, and Memory TFC) from 2005 to 2010.

  • 472 people or independent from the national and international institutions ;
  • 755 people mainly universities of the University of Kinshasa, where the laboratory is located OSFAC GIS ;
  • 35 people in academic internship lasting at least one month ;
  • 27 people in professional internship of three to six months ;
  • 23 people in thesis ;
  • 5 people TFC (End of Cycle Works).

Overall, it can be noted that although the number of trained men is higher, women are increasingly to master these tools to the decision. OSFAC will increase its support to countries in the Congo Basin, particularly national institutions in charge of forests and universities.
