Recovery and Resilience in the Far North region of Cameroon: Operationalizing the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus through the Human Security Approach

​Defined by its different cultures, ethnicities, and tribes, Cameroon is currently navigating multiple challenges including violence and displacement related to Boko Haram in the Far North, the refugee crisis in the East, the COVID-19 pandemic affecting the entire country, and political issues in various regions. The arrival of Boko Haram ten years ago brought violence and conflict to the Lake Chad Basin and led to massive internal and cross-border displacement, the destruction of livelihoods and property, and the disruption of trade and flow of food. ​

The key objectives of the programme are to: (i) improve access to and quality of basic social services with the aim to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and other diseases; (ii) improve food security and economic inclusion of people in vulnerable situations; (iii) increase prevention, preparedness and response to risks, disasters and climate change; (iv) improve social cohesion and trust in justice mechanisms and authorities for increased and strengthened peacebuilding; and (v) enhance the capacity of local authorities to improve public spaces for increased social cohesion, peaceful coexistence and prosperity.
