Context and background: Prescribed fire remains a technique for the management and development of protected areas. It can also be detrimental to the conservation of forest ecosystems and biodiversity. Goal and objectives: The study focuses on the dynamics of vegetation and forest fires in the Fazao-Malfakassa National Park (FMNP) in Togo. Specifically, it aims to assess land use/land cover and wildfire dynamics between 2000 and 2020 in FMNP, Togo. Methodology: The analysis used satellite images from 2014, 2000 and 2020. By comparing the results of land cover classification and wildfire occurrence, the impact of wildfire on vegetation dynamics was revealed. Results: The map analysis shows an increase in Fields/Fallows (1.73%), Open Forests (1.43%), Dry/riparian Forests (2.53%) and Wooded/Shrub Savannahs (1.13%), at the expense of Wooded Savannahs, which are decreasing by 3.35% per year. It also shows a 33.35% increase in vegetation fires. These are mainly concentrated in the south-eastern and north-eastern parts of the park. Wildfires have been identified as the main cause of the declining wooded savannahs.
