Box 17 OKU-Bui Division, North West Region, Cameroon CAMGEW’s authorisation number N° 000998/RDA/JO6/ BAPP Report prepared by WIRSIY EMMANUEL BINYUY (CAMGEW Director) with support from Ngum Jai Raymond (CAMGEW Project Officer) and Sevidzem Ernestine Leikeki (CAMGEW Social Project Officer). 1 PREFACE Our world needs creative and innovative actions to make it a better place for all its occupants. The environment needs to be kept healthy for mankind to be healthy. Poverty, hunger and unemployment have stood as major challenges to mankind. The economic, environmental, political and social conditions are not making things better. We have talked about North-South partnership to make things better for the developing countries and we have also promoted south-south cooperation too but things are not changing positively as expected. Our continent- Africa has a lot of natural resources but these natural resources have not been able to help Africans get decent jobs, put food on their tables, meet other daily needs and invest in the future. There is much disparity between the rich and the poor, the able and the disable, the people in power and those being ruled, the land owners and those in need of land, etc. How do we develop an inclusive strategy that will make everyone belonging to the society? We just hope that as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been developed to replace the expired MDGs things will be getting better globally.

  • Cameroun Évaluation De La Performance En Matière De Sécurité Routière (EPSR) Cameroun
    A Évaluation de la performance en matière de sécurité routière (EPSR) Cameroun Évaluation de la performance en matière de sécurité routière (EPSR) Cameroun Août 2018 New York et Genève, 2018 ECE/TRANS/NONE/2018/6 United Nations publication issued by the Economic Commission for Europe Copyright © United Nations, 2018 All rights reserved worldwide Avant-propos Cameroon Avant-propos Chaque année, plus de 1,2 million de personnes sont tuées et au moins 50 millions sont blessées sur les routes à travers le monde. En 2010, l’Assemblée générale des Nations Unies a proclamé la Décennie d’action pour la sécurité routière 2011-2020. L’objectif de cette décennie est de stabiliser et de réduire ce nombre de décès liés aux accidents de la route. À l’évaluation à mi-parcours, en 2015, de la Décennie, peu de changements ont été observés sur le nombre annuel de décès dus aux accidents de la route. C’est dans ce contexte qu’en 2015 le Secrétaire général des Nations Unies a nommé son tout premier Envoyé spécial pour la sécurité routière. Je suis honoré de servir en cette qualité et de pouvoir mobiliser des forces pour un engagement politique soutenu afin de faire de la sécurité routière une priorité, de plaider en faveur des instruments juridiques des Nations Unies relatifs à la sécurité routière et d’inciter à l’adoption de ces textes, de partager les bonnes pratiques établies en matière de sécurité routière et de mener un plaidoyer pour trouver un financement adéquat. Des avancées ont été enregistrées au niveau mondial avec l’inclusion de la sécurité routière dans les objectifs de développement durable (ODD), avec la cible 3.6 visant à réduire de moitié le nombre d’accidentés de la route et de décès d’ici à 2020, ainsi que la cible 11.2 visant à fournir d’ici à 2030 l’accès à des systèmes de transport sûrs, abordables, accessibles et durables pour tous.
