Abstract

This article analyzes the dynamics of communication that contributed to halt the logging plans in the Ebo forest. The study was conducted through a mixed research approach combining qualitative research based on bibliometric analysis and the political ecology method. Our analysis identified an emergent three-step strategy: a media campaign to name the problem, blame the government, and claim reparations; a mobilization of conservationists, local communities, and political actors to raise awareness; and support from foreign partners to rebalance power dynamics. These efforts led to the government suspending the logging plans. The study has practical implications for stakeholders engaged in similar conservation initiatives.
