  • The Bamendjin Dam and Its Implications in the Upper Noun Valley, Northwest Cameroon

E-mail: [email protected] Received: October 8, 2014 Accepted: October 23, 2014 Online Published: November 23, 2014 doi:10.5539/jsd.v7n6p123 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jsd.v7n6p123 Abstract Understanding the environmental consequences and socio-economic importance of dams is vital in assessing the effects of the Bamendjin dam in the development of agrarian communities in the Upper Noun Valley (UNV) in Northwest Cameroon. The Bamendjin dam drainage basin and its floodplain are endowed with abundant water resources and rich biodiversity, however, poverty is still a dominant factor that accounts for unsustainable management of natural resources by the majority of rural inhabitants in the area. The dam was created in 1975 and has since then exacerbated the environmental conditions and human problems of the region due to lack of flood control during rainy seasons, lost hope of improved navigation system, unclean drinking water sources, population growth, rising unemployment, deteriorating environmental health issues, resettlement problems and land use conflicts, especially farmer-herder conflicts.

  • Commodification of Care and Its Effects on Maternal Health in the Noun Division (West Region – Cameroon) Ibrahim Bienvenu Mouliom Moungbakou
    Moungbakou BMC Medical Ethics 2018, 19(Suppl 1):43 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12910-018-0286-1 RESEARCH Open Access Commodification of care and its effects on maternal health in the Noun division (West Region – Cameroon) Ibrahim Bienvenu Mouliom Moungbakou Abstract Background: Since the mid-1980s, there has been a gradual ethical drift in the provision of maternal care in African health facilities in general, and in Cameroon in particular, despite government efforts. In fact, in Cameroon, an increasing number of caregivers are reportedly not providing compassionate care in maternity services. Consequently, many women, particularly the financially vulnerable, experience numerous difficulties in accessing these health services. In this article, we highlight the unequal access to care in public maternity services in Cameroon in general and the Noun Division in particular. Methods: For this study, in addition to documentary review, two qualitative data collection techniques were used: direct observation and individual interviews. Following the field work, the observation data were categorized and analyzed to assess their relevance and significance in relation to the topics listed in the observation checklist. Interviews were recorded using a dictaphone; they were subsequently transcribed and the data categorized and coded. After this stage, an analysis grid was constructed for content analysis of the transcripts, to study the frequency of topics addressed during the interviews, as well as divergences and convergences among the respondents. Results: The results of this data analysis showed that money has become the driving force in service provision. As such, it is the patient’s economic capital that counts. Considered “clients”, pregnant women without sufficient financial resources wait long hours in corridors; some die in pain under the indifferent gaze of the professionals who are supposed to take care of them.

  • Audit of the Community-Directed Treatment with Ivermectin (CDTI)
    Kamga et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:356 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-2944-z RESEARCH Open Access Audit of the community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) for onchocerciasis and factors associated with adherence in three regions of Cameroon Guy-Roger Kamga1,2,3*, Fanny N. Dissak-Delon1,2,4, Hugues C. Nana-Djeunga2,5, Benjamin D. Biholong1, Stephen Mbigha Ghogomu6, Jacob Souopgui4, Joseph Kamgno2,7 and Annie Robert3 Abstract Background: After more than 15 years of community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) in the Centre 1, Littoral 2 and West CDTI projects in Cameroon, the epidemiological evaluation conducted in 2011 revealed that onchocerciasis endemicity was still high in some communities. To investigate the potential reasons explaining this high endemicity, a cluster coverage survey was conducted in April-May 2015 in three health districts (HD), to assess the implementation of the CDTI, the 2014 therapeutic coverage and the five-year adherence to treatment. A two- stage cluster design was considered during analyses, with data weighted proportionally to age and gender distribution in the population. Results: In the three HDs, 69 community leaders, 762 heads of households, 83 community drug distributors (CDD) and 2942 household members were interviewed. The CDTI organization and the involvement of heads of households were in average weak, with 84.0% (95% CI: 81.2–86.4%) of them who had not participated in activities during the 2014 mass drug administration (MDA). On average, six of ten community leaders declared that the period of treatment was decided by the health personnel while the CDDs selection was made during a community meeting for only 43.4% of them.

This study aims at evaluating the health status of pesticide operators in the said area. 127 farmers were interviewed out of which 30 were selected for medical check-up. A diagnostic was done on the liver status and a physical checkup on the eyes, the respiratory system and the skin of 30 selected pesticide applicators following the medical laboratory routine examination. The skin of users was diagnosed for itching, prickling, irritation and burns; the eyes for sight troubles, stinging, wateriness; the respiratory system for catarrh, cough , difficulties in breathing and chest constriction; the liver status was estimated using two enzymes: Aspartate Amino-Transferase (ASAT) and Alanine Amino-Transferase (ALT). As results: pesticides used are from three main classes and belong to classes II and III toxicity: insecticides (cypermethrin, most used), fungicides (ethylenebisdithiocarbamates) and herbicides (paraquat and glyphosate).

    Report Multi-Sector Rapid Assessment in the West and Littoral Regions Format Cameroon, 25-29 September 2018 1. GENERAL OVERVIEW a) Background What? The humanitarian crisis affecting the North-West and the South-West Regions has a growing impact in the bordering regions of West and Littoral. Since April 2018, there has been a proliferation of non-state armed groups (NSAG) and intensification of confrontations between NSAG and the state armed forces. As of 1st October, an estimated 350,000 people are displaced 246,000 in the South-West and 104,000 in the North-West; with a potential increment due to escalation in hostilities. Why? An increasing number of families are leaving these regions to take refuge in Littoral and the West Regions following disruption of livelihoods and agricultural activities. Children are particularly affected due to destruction or closure of schools and the “No School” policy ordered by NSAG since 2016. The situation has considerably evolved in the past three months because of: i) the anticipated security flashpoints (the start of the school year, the “October 1st anniversary” and the elections); ii) the increasing restriction of movement (curfew extended in the North-West, “No Movement Policy” issued by non-state actors; and iii) increase in both official and informal checkpoints. Consequently, there has been a major increase in the number of people leaving the two regions to seek safety and/or to access economic and educational opportunities. Preliminary findings indicate that IDPs are facing similar difficulties and humanitarian needs than the one reported in the North-West and the South-West regions following the multisectoral needs assessment done in March 2018.
