Bologhine Forest is a forest located in Bologhine, Algiers.[1] It is managed by the Forest Conservation Authority of Algiers, which operates under the supervision of the Directorate General of Forests (DGF).

Overview

The forest is subject to the provisions set forth in Decree 84-45 of February 18, 1984,[2] as amended and supplemented by Decree 07-231 of July 30, 2007. The reduction in the area of the forest has been attributed to urbanization, rapid urban development, and the formation of slums, with an estimated 40% of the initial area having been removed.[3]
