Funding Overview and Partnerships In 2020, UNICEF is appealing for US$ 45,445,000 in support of lifesaving and protection-based response for children and women affected by humanitarian crises in Cameroon. As of 30 November, UNICEF has received US$ 8,451,445 against this humanitarian requirement from the following donors: Japanese government, Swedish SIDA, UN CERF, ECHO, the British Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA). UNICEF expresses its continuing appreciation to these donors for their support. However, the 80% shortfall continues to seriously limit program response; lack of funding is requiring ‘double-hatting’ of several cluster coordination positions and M&E colleagues replacing absent IMOs, and a shift to increasing use of UN Volunteers in place of staff positions.1 Earlier this year, in May, UNICEF issued a ‘Donor Alert’ to Yaounde embassies and donor representatives highlighting critical need of life-saving and protection-based activities to be implemented over the next five months (May-Sept) for displaced, refugee and returnee and host community children, and for which $10,608,000 was urgently required. Vital activities have been curtailed for lack of funding including measles vaccination, access to lifesaving essential drugs, support for safe water and sanitation and mental health and psychosocial services. The impact of underfunding is further noted in the sector progress reports below. In November 2020, UNICEF established short term humanitarian interventions with LUKMEF for protection response and the Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Board Cameroon for WASH for in the North-West and South-West regions, ADRA for education response in East and Adamaoua regions for a total value of US $ 515,463.

Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs The onset in early March of the COVID-19 pandemic in Cameroon introduced new threats to children and vulnerable communities with humanitarian response immediately complicated by restrictions on group events and movement. An additional 2.3 million people were estimated to need humanitarian assistance due to the impact of COVID-19, bringing the total number of people in need from 3.9 million prior to the COVID-19 outbreak to 6.2 million. This was reflected in the updated Cameroon HRP, issued in early June. The requirement includes over 3 million children in need of urgent humanitarian aid because of violence and conflict, disease outbreaks including measles, cholera, and the COVID-19 pandemic. See table on COVID-19 case reporting below.

Violent clashes between government forces and non-state armed groups (NSAGs) in the North-West and South-West regions remained a root cause for population displacement. As of November 2020, according to OCHA, 4,749 newly displaced persons fled across both regions, in majority to the North-West (3,882 – 82%) and few to neighbouring regions. While the overall conflict-affected population presents urgent needs and has limited access to basic services, the volatile insecurity (abduction, killings, clashes, IEDs, ghost days and roadblocks) still narrows and delays humanitarian reach. In both regions, less than 30% of the schools are operational. Since the NSAGs call against school re-opening, this new academic year is marked by a worsening trend in attack, abduction, robbery and torture affecting students and teachers on school premises or on their way to school. The UN Secretary General, the UNICEF Executive Director and country Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator expressed serious concerns over these incidents, joining the profound shock and denunciations expressed by government officials, some of the opposition groups, and especially people across the country. UNICEF took measures to scale up ongoing child protection activities in Kumba to assist the victims of attacks on school.

1 In parallel, against a COVID-19 response requirement of US$24,007,500 as presented in the UNICEF global COVID-19 HAC, US$16,271,528 has been received. 2

Heavy rains continued to impact the divisions of the Far-North region, especially in Logone et Chari where it damaged and destroyed houses, cultivated areas, roads and bridges while worsening tensions between herders and farmers and further constricting access to services and humanitarian assistance. Notably, the flooding of Kousseri led to the forced displacement of over 1,400 households. In addition, hosting 16,500 displaced persons is accessible only through pirogues hindering the delivery of assistance. The compounded effect of the flooding and insecurity renders the humanitarian delivery even more difficult. UNDSS reported continuing high numbers of attacks on civilians in Far North region with 23 deaths and 12 wounded or maimed persons bringing it to a total for the year of 321 killed and another 240 wounded or maimed. The largest number of attacks were reported in Mayo Sava division followed by Mayo Tsanaga with 79% of incidents classified by security specialists as ‘terrorism’ related. This follows a shift from the first half of the year when more attacks were affecting Logone et Chari division at the extreme tip of Far North Region, bordering Lake Chad.

Summary Analysis of Response2: Nutrition3 NSAGs’ violence – Lake Chad Basin In the Far-North region, UNICEF worked collaboratively with the Regional Delegation of the Ministry of Public Health and NGO partners ALIMA, HKI, IEDA, ACF, IMC to ensure availability and access for the treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in 366 health centres through the provision of nutrition supplies (RUTF, therapeutic milk, essential drugs) and WASH kits. Over 3,533 children aged 6-59 months including 32 Nigerian refugee children from Minawao camp were admitted to these UNICEF-supported health centres for treatment under the Blueprint Initiative umbrella. Following the community training of mothers on how to detect malnutrition in their children with MUAC tapes and oedema measurements, 9,823 children from 6 to 59 months were screened using this method. In addition, with other methods, 103,484 children from 6 to 59 were screened of which 715 SAM (severe acute malnutrition) cases were detected with 4,353 cases of MAM (moderate acute malnutrition). All were referred for treatment. Also, in Far North Region, in 11 health districts (, Kaele, Karhay, Mada, Makary, Maroua 1,2,3, , and ) 67,378 children aged 6-23 months were enrolled in the home- based food fortification program, each receiving a micronutrient powder sachet every other day.

North-West/South-West Crisis UNICEF partners4 and the Regional Delegation of the Ministry of Public Health screened 40,594 children (21,109 girls and 19,485 boys) in very hard to reach and peri-urban areas. The children were reached in health facilities and through mobile teams. Among them, 178 (0.4%) were identified with SAM and referred for proper treatment. However, access to in-patient care for SAM treatment remain constrained by medical bills (especially for non-UNICEF supported medicines), insecurity and movement restriction. To ensure the continuity of the nutrition response, UNICEF pre-positioned 3 months’ worth of supplies (RUTF, drugs & therapeutic milk) at regional headquarters in Bamenda and Buea. UNICEF partners also carried out joint sensitisation on COVID-19 and infant and young child feeding practices, reaching 43,744 caregivers (27,114 women and 16,630 men). In addition, 2,012 caregivers were trained on family/mother MUAC approach. Following its performance monitoring (CCPM), the Nutrition Cluster identified preparedness and contingency planning as a capacity in need of major and critical strengthening.

Health North-West/South-West Crisis UNICEF supported the Regional Delegation of Public Health to conduct the first round of PIRI during three-days to catch-up children and pregnant women who missed routine vaccination in both regions (Bamenda, Kumba East, Nkambe, Wum, Kumba, Konye and Mamfe). In complement, UNICEF partner CARITAS Bamenda supported the delivery of basic health services to displaced persons and host communities in hard to reach areas in 2 divisions in North-West region (Menchum and Ngo-Ketunjia). A total of 24,636 children 6-59 months were vaccinated with routine vaccination against the most prevalent child killing diseases, including 3,982 children who received MR (measles/rubella) vaccination. Also, 13,544 children received Vitamin A supplementation and 223 children were

NSAGs’ violence – Lake Chad BasinIn Kousseri and , UNICEF partners ACDC and DEMTOU assisted 2,828 flood-induced internally displaced persons (728 men, 962 women, 541 boys and 597 girls) with WASH kits and key hygiene messages. Each kit included 6 pieces of soap 250 gr, 1 bucket of 20l with lid, 1 kettle 1l, 1 jerrycan of 10l, 300 Aquatabs tablets, 1 baby potty, and 4 cups of 0.5l. Also, in Kousseri, 1,300 other displaced households (11,300 people) were reached with aquatabs (300 tablets per household) and key WASH messages to treat drinking water and adopt good hygiene practices.

North-West/South-West Crisis In the South-West region, UNICEF partner AFRINET reached 15,480 conflict-affected persons with WASH services including COVID-19 prevention interventions. Key services provided were Water supply, distribution of WASH kits, access to sanitation facilities and promotion of good hygiene and sanitation practices including COVID-19 prevention measures. Also, AFRINET constructed latrine for a total of 4 cabins (200 individual beneficiaries) in Kupe- Manengouba division.

Education NSAGs’ violence – Lake Chad BasinUnder Global Partnership for Education (GPE) funding, UNICEF distributed learning equipment for more than 38,547 children (15,441 girls) and 282 teachers (39 women) in 92 schools in Mayo- Moskota and Makari.

North-West/South-West Crisis UNICEF implementing partners COHEB and MWDA pursued ‘narrow-casting’5 learning sessions for 6,830 out of school children (including 4,381 girls). This included basic math, language and behavioural changing messages related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the South-West region.

Child Protection NSAGs’ violence – Lake Chad BasinIn the Far-North region, UNICEF implementing partner CLiRA identified, referred and facilitated, under its child protection from violence, exploitation and abuse interventions, the enrollment of 400 vulnerable children (208 boys and 192 girls, including 133 living with a disability) into schools practicing inclusive education i.e., formal education with protection services. Among them, 66 children (50 girls and 16 boys) at risk of child marriage and victims of violence, sexual exploitation, and unwanted pregnancies were assisted through counselling, home visits and provided with hygiene kits. Similarly, UNICEF implementing partner COOPI integrated 46 koranic students (17 girls and 29 boys) in 7 formal primary schools in Mayo-Sava and Mayo-Tsanaga localities (Zamai, Moskota, Tourou, Limani, Amchedi, Meme and ). They all benefited from school kits and indiscriminate in-kind food support along paid parent/teacher association fees. In prevention of seasonal trends on child abuse, exploitation, trafficking and labor, ALDEPA organised 167 sessions of inter-generational/inter-religious dialogue on the consequences of drug consumption, risk of violence and

This activity reached 2,799 persons (651 girls, 566 boys, 1.007 women and 575 men).

North-West/South-West Crisis In the North-West and South-West regions, UNICEF implementing partners LUKMEF, CARITAS Kumba, CARITAS Memfe and CARITAS Bamenda reached 7,742 children and caregivers (2,461 girls, 1,937 boys, 1,898 women and 1,446 men) with mental health and psychosocial support. A total of 707 unaccompanied and separated children (595 girls and 112 boys) were identified and assisted. All of them were placed in alternative care and received hygiene kits. Among those previously identified, 10 unaccompanied children (5 girls and 5 boys) were reunified with their families while family tracing is still ongoing for recent cases. To scale up the capacity and quality of child protection response, UNICEF partners (LUKMEF, Street Child, Reach Out and SUDAHSER) deployed Child Protection Case Management (CPCM) services in 6 North-West and South-West divisions (Mezam, Ngo-Ketunjia, Boyo, Meme, Ndian, and Fako). Through case management tools and the GBV (Gender Based Violence) Area of Responsibility referral pathways developed with UNFPA, 8 children (7 girls and 1 boy) received GBV support services. Also, 3,205 persons (992 girls, 842 boys, 779 women and 592 men) were sensitized on GBV and SEA and how to prevent it in peri-urban areas through CBCPMs and community leaders. Thanks to these sessions, communities are more aware of GBV concerns and risks of PSEA and are now referring cases to UNICEF partners.

Communication for development (C4D) NSAGs’ violence – Lake Chad Basin A series of campaigns for the sensitization of families on Reproductive, Maternal, Neonatal and Infant Health (RMNCH) was organized in 20 priority health districts of the North and Far North regions. This was coupled with free delivery of services such as vaccination (for children and pregnant women), antennal care, consultation of minor illnesses and laboratory tests, in various health facilities in each of the 20 selected health districts.

East and Adamaoua Regions (refugee and host community response) The global UNHCR-UNICEF Blueprint initiative for Cameroon was launched in Bertoua on 7 October, it was presided over by the Governor of the East Region. This two-year UNHCR-UNICEF joint initiative aims to transform the quality of life for refugee and host population’s children and their families by doubling access to social services and infrastructures in East and Adamaoua.

Nutrition – In the North, Adamawa and East regions, UNICEF implementing partners (ACF, AHA, HKI, ASAD and OFSAD) and the Regional Public Health Delegation supported 531 health centres with coverage extending to refugee communities. Nutrition supplies were provided (RUTF, therapeutic milk, essential drugs) for children suffering from SAM (Severe Acute Malnutrition) along with WASH kits to ease access to treatment. As a result, 1,853 severely acute malnourished children aged 6-59 months including 112 CAR refugee children, were admitted in these UNICEF- supported health centres for treatment. Also, UNICEF supported community-based Health Workers screening 43,693 children aged 6-59 months. Among them, 137 were detected with SAM (among which 09 with oedema) and were referred for treatment and 379 with MAM were referred to the nearest prevention programme. Also, in East Region, in collaboration with ACF, 191 community health workers were briefed on acute malnutrition screening procedures of children under five, in the health districts of Batouri, Kette and Ndelele.

Child Protection – Collaboratively with the Regional Delegation of Social Affairs, UNICEF and its implementing partners IMC (International Medical Corps) and AMS (Association Main Solidaire) sensitized 1,394 people (142 girls, 1,122 women and 130 boys) on gender-based violence and protection against sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA). Also, 172 children (96 boys and 76 girls) received community-based psychosocial support. In Garoua-Boulai, through CBCPMs (community-based complaints and feedback mechanisms), 50 children at risk or victims of violence and exploitation (20 girls and 30 boys) were registered. As an early response to these cases and previous ones, 52 cases were referred to community leaders for family mediation, 21 referrals to services were made under case management and 41 mediation sessions with caregivers were organized. Among them, and under the Blueprint initiative umbrella, 122 refugee and host community children benefited from life-skills sessions. Parallelly, CBCPMs’ members organised 27 awareness raising sessions on child protection reaching 923 people in order to inform about the reporting mechanism and subsequent assistance.

C4D - As part of the support program for Central African refugees in 6 municipalities in Adamawa and East regions, a media briefing workshop was organized on the collaboration and the development of the communication plan. The coordinators of the 02 regional platforms of community radios for the East and Adamawa and 04 other urban media (CRTV-East, Radio Aurore, LTMTV and SANS Detour) were involved in the activity. In perspective in this context, the adoption of media plans and the signing of contracts for information and sensitization of refugees are planned. Additionally, there was engagement of 100 community leaders and 20 association leaders for sensitization in their respective localities.

Systems Strengthening • In the Far-North region, on World Toilet Day (November 19), UNICEF facilitated a workshop on community-led total sanitation (CLTS) in Maroua with NGO actors, Diamare local authorities and regional delegations of ministries (Water Resources and Energy (MINEE), Housing and Urban Development (MINHDU), Decentralization and Local Development (MINDDEVEL), and Communications). As a result, municipalities committed to give a central place to sanitation in their municipal development plans currently being updated, including in emergency situations. • In partnership with the Adamaoua Regional Delegation for Public Health, UNICEF developed an inventory and mapping of health centres WASH conditions in all the existing 9 health districts, the first results showing that 42 (24%) out of 174 health facilities do not have safe drinking water points. • Within the framework of the Blueprint Initiative, UNICEF and UNHCR co-led an inter-agency training with 41 PSEA focal points (28 women and 13 men) from 14 organizations including 4 UN Agencies. Each of the 41 focal points drafted an action plan for the prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse by humanitarian workers which they are to implement and monitor in their respective organizations. • UNICEF trained 100 health care providers from neonatal care units and maternity in the district hospitals of the South-West and North-West Regions (Buea, Limbe, Kumba, Bamenda, Batibo, Fundong, Kumbo, Santa and Tubah) on the provision of quality essential newborn care, including the kangaroo method and management of low birth weight/premature babies. • In support of the ‘Clean schools’ initiative of the Ministry of Secondary Education, UNICEF has supported the reinforcement of capacity building in Psychosocial Support, and Risk Mitigation for 1,500 teachers across the country. They will be better equipped to work with children in contexts of insecurity, conflict and displacement.

Humanitarian Leadership, Coordination, Strategy and Partnerships • The Humanitarian/Resident Coordinator leads the overall humanitarian coordination, supported by OCHA. • At the national level, UNICEF and the Government are co-leading the Nutrition, WASH and Education sectors, as well as the sub-sectoral group for Child Protection. • In the Far-North region, OCHA leads inter-sector coordination for out-of-camp refugees, IDPs and host communities, while UNHCR oversees coordination for refugee response in the regions of the East and Adamawa and North. • In response to the crisis in the North-West and South-West, clusters have been activated and UNICEF is the lead for the WASH, Nutrition and Education clusters and the Child Protection Area of Responsibility. • In response to COVID-19 outbreak UNICEF is co-leading with the government the joint pillar on Risk Communications and Community Engagement.6 Latest indications suggest national COVID-19 response planning for 2021 is likely to shift to more integrated approaches into national development and service structures in addition to roll out of COVAX vaccination implementation. • Planning of the 2021 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) continued with finalization of regional needs assessments in all parts of the country: North-West, South-West, North and Far North, East and Adamaoua, Littoral and West. Summarizing the assessment findings, the 2020 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) is now being finalized. Consistent with the national strategy, the 2021 HRP will not highlight specific COVID-19 strategies, limiting to integra ration into existing humanitarian approaches.

In March, UNICEF adopted an integrated COVID-19 strategy to ensure that lifesaving and protection interventions are sustained whilst managing the pandemic response. The response has been incorporated into a global COVID-19 appeal and the revised global COVID-19 HRP was launched in May.
