Cameroon
The ongoing conflict in the Lake Chad Basin continues to impact people in northern Cameroon, with many injured in repeated incursions by non-state armed groups and outbreaks of intercommunal violence.
In 2024, we strengthened our support for emergency surgery at Mora District hospital by rehabilitating the operating theatre.

In Far North, we also focus on supporting community healthcare activities in areas where insecurity prevents people from accessing medical facilities. In these areas, we have trained community health workers to treat uncomplicated malaria and diarrhoea cases, screen children for severe acute malnutrition, and refer patients requiring specialist care to hospitals.
In response to the floods in Far North, which affected more than 365,000 people, we sent teams to Kai-Kai and Yagoua, where they conducted outpatient consultations, as well as screening and treatment for severe acute malnutrition. We also supported the routine vaccination programme, and organised awareness-raising campaigns to help prevent malaria and diarrhoeal diseases.
In the capital, Yaoundé, in Centre region, we launched a sustainable cholera prevention project to support the national plan to eradicate the disease. Our teams are working with the Ministry of Health to improve access to drinking water and sanitation services, and raise community awareness of preventive measures.
