Cameroun Ecologie

Cameroon Ecology's mission is to strengthen the capacities of development actors, decentralized local and regional authorities and populations in the sustainable management of natural resources, local governance and the development of the local economy. We also integrate related aspects of Gender and environmental protection into our work. Cameroon Ecology was born in 2000 on the initiative of Mrs. Ndjebet Cecile with a mandate to help communities to fight poverty through sustainable management of the environment. From a series of small initiatives, Cameroon Ecology has become an important actor for the implementation of community projects aimed at improving the living conditions of local populations. In Cameroon, a large part of the population lives in rural areas and thus depends indirectly on nature. The challenge is to improve the participation of these communities in the sustainable management of natural resources by increasing their capacities so that they contribute actively to poverty reduction. We continue to work on this challenge, which we undertook over a decade ago, because we thus believe that participating in the socio-economic development of communities can be in line with supporting the environmental development goals of Cameroon and fighting climate change.
