Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs Instability due to the insecurity in the Far North region continues to generate displacement of population in the region. According to the DTM (IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix Round 16, November 2018), as of November, the total number of people displaced are 392,027 out of whom 245,725 IDPs, 40,396 out of camp refugees and 105,906 returnees. Logone and Chari remains the division which hosts the highest number of affected population followed by Mayo Sava division. In the North and Far North regions, the cholera epidemic is ongoing. As of December, a total of 991 cases and 58 deaths have been reported in Cameroon, out of which 633 cases with 40 deaths, and 279 cases and 17 deaths are recorded respectively in the North and Far North regions, according to the Ministry of Public Health (Situation Report 21 December 2018). Since the declaration of cholera outbreak in July, UNICEF has been collaborating with the regional health delegations of the North and Far North regions for cholera coordination and responses. UNICEF continues to implement sensitisation activities and provide of WASH kits in the affected areas in these regions. Since November, the Far North region is facing a measles epidemic in Kousseri health district in Logone and Chari division. As of December, 159 cases, including three deaths have been reported (Ministry of Public Health, Situation Report 29 December 2018). UNICEF has provided 59,690 measles vaccines to the Far North regional health delegation. In addition, UNICEF plans to conduct an immunisation campaign at the beginning of January. In the North West and South West regions, UNICEF’s implementation of programmes in health, WASH, child protection and communication for development continues with the distribution of WASH kits and mosquito nets as well as child protection and community sensitisation activities. Since August, UNICEF has successfully reached more than 47,000 people, including those who are in hard-to-reach areas, notwithstanding strong access constraints and limited acceptability in these regions.

Humanitarian Strategy UNICEF’s integrated programme is based on four pillars: building a protective environment and supporting community peacebuilding; preventing and responding to the violence and exploitation of children; increasing access to basic services; and strengthening emergency preparedness and response systems. All four pillars bridge the humanitarian-development nexus and foster community resilience to outside pressures, such as conflict or 2 population displacement, while supporting the State to anticipate and respond to shocks. UNICEF aims at strengthening collaboration between community-based structures and government services to provide care and protection to children, particularly the most marginalised. By supporting community dialogue mechanisms, inter- generational dialogue and non-violent relationships among peers, UNICEF works to foster social cohesion, giving children a voice and rebuilding community linkages. Recognizing that lack of access to basic services exposes children to vulnerabilities, UNICEF supports the Government to strengthen the quality of service delivery at the community level by training community workers and establishing needed infrastructure, improving access to water and sanitation in schools and health centres, developing community health mechanisms and improving the quality of education. Furthermore, UNICEF is working with non-governmental organisations and other partners to implement mechanisms for monitoring and responding to emergencies in a timely and effective manner. Summary Analysis of Programme Response UNICEF humanitarian assistance primarily focuses on IDPs, out-of-camp Nigerian refugees and host communities affected by the violence caused by armed groups as well as the refugees who fled the armed conflict in Central African Republic (CAR), and host communities. Lake Chad Basin (LCB) Crisis Nutrition IMAM activities continue in the Far North (349 health facilities) and North (203 health facilities) regions. Throughout 2018, 62,626 children aged 6-59 months were admitted across UNICEF supported health centres in the Far North and North regions (44,334 in the Far North, 18,292 in the North) for the treatment of malnutrition. During the month of December, 9,421 people (2,556 men and 6,865 women) were sensitised on Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) and good hygiene practices in health districts most impacted by displacements (Kolofata, Koza, and Mora in the Far North region). Health In 2018, 8,877 children aged 0-11 years were vaccinated against measles in Mokolo, Koza, Mora and Kolofata health districts including 1,315 children for the month of December. By December, 3,460 pregnant women have received Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) in Mayo Sava and Mayo Tsanaga divisions (Far North region). WASH During 2018, UNICEF has continued to support the cholera response in the North and Far North regions. In December, four partnership agreements were signed respectively with Solidarités Internationale (SI), Cameroon Red Cross (CRC), Association for the Promotion of Sustainable Development (AP2D), Union of Supporting Organizations for Sustainable Development (UNOADD) in order to strengthen awareness-raising activities in the North and Far North regions. Also in December, SI trained 78 community health and hygiene workers on cholera prevention. These health workers later sensitised 19,577 people, including 9,708 children in the health districts of Makary and Mada in the Far North region. As for the WASH response to IDPs, the construction of 72 latrines in the IDP site in Zamaï has started in partnership with a national NGO, Public Concern.

  • Aerial Surveys of Wildlife and Human Activity Across the Bouba N'djida
    Aerial Surveys of Wildlife and Human Activity Across the Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape Northern Cameroon and Southwestern Chad April - May 2015 Paul Elkan, Roger Fotso, Chris Hamley, Soqui Mendiguetti, Paul Bour, Vailia Nguertou Alexandre, Iyah Ndjidda Emmanuel, Mbamba Jean Paul, Emmanuel Vounserbo, Etienne Bemadjim, Hensel Fopa Kueteyem and Kenmoe Georges Aime Wildlife Conservation Society Ministry of Forests and Wildlife (MINFOF) L'Ecole de Faune de Garoua Funded by the Great Elephant Census Paul G. Allen Foundation and WCS SUMMARY The Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape is located in north Cameroon and extends into southwest Chad. It consists of Bouba N’djida, Sena Oura, Benoue and Faro National Parks, in addition to 25 safari hunting zones. Along with Zakouma NP in Chad and Waza NP in the Far North of Cameroon, the landscape represents one of the most important areas for savanna elephant conservation remaining in Central Africa. Aerial wildlife surveys in the landscape were first undertaken in 1977 by Van Lavieren and Esser (1979) focusing only on Bouba N’djida NP. They documented a population of 232 elephants in the park. After a long period with no systematic aerial surveys across the area, Omondi et al (2008) produced a minimum count of 525 elephants for the entire landscape. This included 450 that were counted in Bouba N’djida NP and its adjacent safari hunting zones. The survey also documented a high richness and abundance of other large mammals in the Bouba N’djida NP area, and to the southeast of Faro NP. In the period since 2010, a number of large-scale elephant poaching incidents have taken place in Bouba N’djida NP.

Although aspects of indigenous culture, which have been grouped into four spheres, namely Fang-Beti, Grassfields, Sawa and Sudano-Sahelian, are dotted all over the country in multiple ways, Cameroon cannot still boast of a national culture emblem.

  • B133 Cameroon's Far North Reconstruction Amid Ongoing Conflict
    Cameroon’s Far North: Reconstruction amid Ongoing Conflict &ULVLV*URXS$IULFD%ULHILQJ1 1DLUREL%UXVVHOV2FWREHU7UDQVODWHGIURP)UHQFK I. Overview Cameroon has been officially at war with Boko Haram since May 2014. Despite a gradual lowering in the conflict’s intensity, which peaked in 2014-2015, the contin- uing violence, combined with the sharp rise in the number of suicide attacks between May and August 2017, are reminders that the jihadist movement is by no means a spent force. Since May 2014, 2,000 civilians and soldiers have been killed, in addition to the more than 1,000 people kidnapped in the Far North region. Between 1,500 and 2,100 members of Boko Haram have reportedly been killed following clashes with the Cameroonian defence forces and vigilante groups. The fight against Boko Haram has exacerbated the already-delicate economic situation for the four million inhabitants of this regionௗ–ௗthe poorest part of the country even before the outbreak of the conflict. Nevertheless, the local population’s adaptability and resilience give the Cameroonian government and the country’s international partners the opportunity to implement development policies that take account of the diversity and fluidity of the traditional economies of this border region between Nigeria and Chad. The Far North of Cameroon is a veritable crossroads of trading routes and cultures. Besides commerce, the local economy is based on agriculture, livestock farming, fishing, tourism, transportation of goods, handcrafts and hunting. The informal sector is strong, and contraband rife. Wealthy merchants and traditional chiefsௗ–ௗoften members of the ruling party and high-ranking civil servantsௗ–ௗare significant economic actors.

    Syllabus Review 6 (1), 2015 : 155 - 174 N SYLLABUS REVIEW E S Human & Social Science Series Gouvernance urbaine et urbanisation de Garoua Simon Pierre Petnga Nyamen1, Michel Tchotsoua2 1Doctorant en Géographie, Université de Ngaoundéré, BP : 454, [email protected], 2Professeur titulaire des universités, Université de Ngaoundéré, BP : 454, [email protected] Résumé Du petit village créé vers la fin du XVIIIème siècle à l’actuelle Communauté Urbaine, Garoua a connu plusieurs transformations du fait des acteurs de sa croissance. La forme actuelle de la municipalité est la sixième d’une série commencée en 1951 et s’explique a priori par la volonté de l’État du Cameroun d’impulser une dynamique nouvelle à son processus de décentralisation. Cet article analyse l’urbanisation de Garoua en mettant un accent particulier sur le mode de gestion de la ville. L’approche méthodologique est basée sur les analyses des cartes et images satellites, les observations directes de terrain et le traitement des données collectées par entretiens semi-structurés avec les autorités de Garoua, les représentants des organismes impliqués dans le développement urbain et certains habitants de la ville. Les principaux résultats de cette étude relèvent que, les différentes transformations administratives du territoire ont favorisé la multiplication et la diversification des acteurs impliqués dans la gestion urbaine. Ces acteurs ont, dans la plupart des cas, des objectifs différents ou des compétences qui se chevauchent, ce qui fait qu’il subsiste une confusion dans le rôle de chacun d’entre eux et constitue un obstacle à la réalisation de certains projets de développement dans la ville de Garoua.
