Camaay-Magazine-February-2021 Who We Are: CAMAAY is Non- Governmental Organisation (NGO), based at Cameroon, connected to UNA-UK to bring success to Sustainbale Development Goals (SDG) of United Nation (UN). CAMAAY is a non-political, non-religious, non-profit association. CAMAAY envisions a society wherein every individual has the opportunity to grow and contribute to the socioeconomic development of the community. We endeavour to achieve our goals through activities that promote sustainable community development in Cameroon. These activities involve strong participation from local community members with the guidance and valuable assistance of CAMAAY and its volunteers. We, the members of the members of Cameroon Association of Active Youths (CAMAAY), a non-profit association, commit ourselves to work in the interest of humanity without distinction as to race, sex or religious background with due respect to the law. We pledge to work closely with other associations, foreign representatives or institutions, NGOs and the Cameroon Government in promoting the principles and practices of quality agriculture, education, healthcare, sports, social well-being and environmental protection. We agree to join forces in the attainment of the United Nations objective in making the world a better place in which to live, with sufficient food and conducive environments. We therefore commit ourselves to achieving our objectives through our activities and the implementation of policies consistent with our objectives. We agree to work with respect to the laws governing the functioning of associations. We believe that: Agriculture is the backbone of our economy. Agriculture is top among our efforts in the fight against poverty, which is a global challenge 80% of our people still live in rural areas and solely depend on agriculture for survival. Our environment is and will remain the only natural habitation for humanity and if care is not taken mankind will be eliminated from his environment. Health is the basic requirement for a productive and progressive community and can only be achieved through what people eat, the environment in which they live and mental well-being. The prime measure of satisfaction and success for CAMAAY is in the positive community changes brought about by our actions. Our Core Values: Expression of the humanitarian obligations to exercise charity and to promote social justice Development as an empowerment process focusing on people’s participation and the creation of autonomous groups and individuals Commitment to non-authoritarian structures and to democratic decision-making processes within the organization Youth and child participation as a prerequisite for sustainable development.

INNOCENT NZIMENYERA: I am a data scientist and IT support engineer ,I hold bachelor’s degree in computer science from university of Rwanda, college of science and technology. I have been working as an ICT intern at National bank of Rwanda. Currently I am working as digital Ambassador at the Ministry of ICT and Innovation. I enjoy being challenged and engaging with projects that require me to work outside my comfort and knowledge set, as I continue to learn new skills and development techniques that are important to me and the success of the organization. I am proactive, innovative, self-motivated and capable of working under minimum supervision. Akagera National Park: The Place that I like most A couple of months ago I went to the Akagera National Park. It stands as the one and only Savannah park in Rwanda where one can visit for the exhilarating game drives cruising past the wildlife game throughout the park with a ranger guide on a guided tour. Akagera National Park is home to Rwanda’s big five mammals and several other wildlife species including the Rhinos, Lions, Buffaloes, Giraffes, Zebras, Elephants, Kobs, antelopes, impalas, Hippos, and so much more which will give you the best photographic safari moments. It is located in the north-eastern part of Rwanda, next to the Tanzania-Rwanda border and a two hours drive from Kigali. It is one of the 3 great national parks of Rwanda besides volcanoes national park, and Nyungwe National Park. Akagera National Park is one of the African parks founded in 1934 to protect animals and wildlife in Rwanda and is Africa’s largest protected wetland. Akagera National Park is mainly covered by swamps woodland, and low mountains with savannah vegetation. This large park covers a space of 1,122 square kilometres. It is divided into two sectors; northern sector and southern sector. The Akagera National Park is bordered by a 120km long electrified predator-proof perimeter wall. It really is a picturesque park surrounded by many trees and beautiful hotels. I went there with my family for a two days’ holiday. DAY 1: TRANSFER FROM KIGALI TO AKAGERA NATIONAL PARK: The two-hour journey to Akagera National Park was along the road with mesmerizing beautiful landscape views of Rwanda’s beautiful nature and scenery. As we arrived at the park, we checked in for our safari accommodation at the lodge. We planned to stay in and then afterwards proceed for a short game drive. We had a delicious lunch prepared to the standard of our taste and later went for a boat ride on Lake Ihema hoping to see the aquatic mammals such as the Hippos and crocodiles as they go about in the lake or by the shores. I enjoyed my stay there very much, as I had not had a holiday for ages and needed to switch off from working. I spent a lot of time observing not only animals in the park but also different kinds of trees. I also enjoyed eating the delicious food, and walking around the surrounding buildings in the town of kayonza. DAY 2: SAFARI GAME DRIVE IN AKAGERA NATIONAL PARK: Our second and last day of the tour started very early in the morning with breakfast and right away we left with our packed lunch for safari game drive in the park. We expected to see the Lions, Rhinos, Elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes, Antelopes, Kobs, Baboons, among others. Akagera National park is also a varied habitat for wildlife species in Rwanda and a birders’ haven with more than 500 bird species in the park. One of the things I enjoyed the most was the park tour during which I saw a couple of lions which were together, it seemed as though they were in a meeting. I had never seen lions before, and I loved the collaboration of them. I would definitely like to go back to observe the way they live with one another. After the game drive which took up to 6 hours, we had our picnic lunch and then exited the park through the northern gate to start the journey back to Kigali. To put in nutshell, I encourage everyone who needs to observe the beauty of the world to come toRwanda to visit Akagera National Park, and I thank the government of Rwanda which throughRwanda Development Board and African Parks the sustains the park by improving law enforcement, investing in and stimulating local enterprise, and by optimising AkageraNational Park’s exceptional potential for conservation-based tourism.
