UNICEF is finalising agreements with partners through whom it will implement projects in child protection, health and water and sanitation as well as nutritional screening. Communication for Development (C4D) will reinforce these projects through social mobilisation and community engagement. Two new epidemics were confirmed in Cameroon this month: monkeypox and cholera. Monkeypox is a rare viral zoonosis (a virus transmitted to humans from animals) with symptoms in humans similar to those seen in the past in smallpox patients, although less severe. The National Emergency Operation Centre for this epidemic was activated on 15 May after one case was confirmed on 14 May. During the second week of transmission, the infection has spread to the regions of Central, East and Far North. As of 30 May, a total of 16 cases have been recorded, of which one was confirmed, 10 tested negative for monkeypox (however, four of them tested positive for chickenpox). The main challenges are: 1) insecurity in the two regions due to the Anglophone crisis which forced many people to live in the bush, and 2) geographically hard-to-reach health districts. UNICEF is working with partners to integrate the messages on the monkeypox infection and how to prevent the infection into the Essential Family Practices (EFPs) messaging. Three suspected cases of cholera were reported in two health areas (Guirviza and Doumo) of Mayo Oulo health district (137,214 inhabitants) in North region with one case confirmed in Guirviza health area, with no fatalities. Since 22 May, there has been no new suspected case recorded. The Ministry of Health (MOH) Emergency Cluster has been activated both at central and regional levels and a response plan developed. To reinforce prevention activities, UNICEF has additionally provided cholera prevention items to Mayo Oulo health district, which have been allocated to the affected areas. UNICEF is working closely with the health district of Mayo Oulo and the Regional Delegation of Public Health of North region to support the social mobilization on cholera prevention. A field mission is being conducted from 30 May – 1 June to identify gaps in terms of preventive activities and response. Needs assessment was conducted by UNICEF in Amchide and Limani, localities of Mayo Sava department, Far North region, along the border with Nigeria. As these areas suffered attacks by Boko Haram, significant destruction was observed, and strong needs were identified in terms of education, health and child protection for 13,881 people who returned to these villages of origin after taking refuge in the neighboring villages and towns, in addition to 3,500 IDPs and the host populations. In East region, at least 695 people, 55% of whom children (girls representing 55% of these children), crossed the border into Cameroon from the Central African Republic (CAR) in the localities of Gbiti (341), Bombe Pana (150) and Wissambo (204). These people fled the clashes between the UN Mission in Central African Republic (MINUSCA)/Central African Armed Forces and the armed group occupying the border areas of two prefectures of Mambere Kadey and Nana Mambere in CAR. An interagency needs assessment was organized with WFP, UNHCR, UNICEF and other humanitarian partners to identify the priority needs. Most have come to join their family members who arrived before them, with whom they share their limited resources. A relatively small number of continuous new arrivals from CAR will add a great pressure on these host families which will lead to precarious and worsening living conditions. The needs identified include food, drinking water, hygiene and sanitation, shelter, psychosocial support and education (especially an accelerated/catch-up program). An interagency response plan is being developed based upon the priority needs identified in the needs assessment in these specific localities. In Garoua Boulai, East region, more than 200 new arrivals from CAR, the majority of them women and children, were pre-listed by UNHCR. According to UNHCR, the number of those fleeing the unrest in Bangui, the capital of CAR, is expected to be much higher because many of these people have spread to other localities including the refugee site of Gado, and other locations in Meiganga (Adamaoua region), Betare Oya or even Bertoua (East region).

This extends into the coordination of the humanitarian response to the Central African Republic refugee crisis in the regions of the East and Adamawa. UNHCR organizes monthly meetings with other humanitarian actors, to consolidate data and harmonize interventions. Humanitarian Strategy UNICEF’s integrated programme is based on four pillars: building a protective environment and supporting community peacebuilding; preventing and responding to the violent 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 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 marginalized. 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
