🌍📖 International Literacy Day 2025

Yesterday, we joined APADES and other dedicated NGOs to celebrate International Literacy Day through an inspiring interactive session.

This year’s theme—“Promoting Literacy in the Digital Era”—highlighted the pivotal role of digital technology in enabling reading, writing, numeracy, and lifelong learning skills across the country. From mobile apps to online platforms, digital tools are transforming how communities access education and build brighter futures.

Together, we created a space for dialogue, learning, and empowerment, reminding us that literacy is more than just a skill; it’s a gateway to opportunity, inclusion, and dignity.

Huge thanks to all the participants, partners, and change-makers who made this day unforgettable. Let’s keep the momentum going and continue promoting literacy for all—online and offline.

Strengthening Peace Through Women’s Leadership in Cameroon 🇨🇲

Women leaders from the East, Adamawa, North, and Far North regions have just completed a powerful training in Ngaoundéré focused on early warning and conflict prevention.

Over three days, participants explored:
🔹 Conflict analysis & peacebuilding tools
🔹 Operational strategies for preventing violence
🔹 How to detect signs of radicalization and address extremism

With elections approaching in 2025 and 2026, these skills are more critical than ever. The workshop builds on efforts launched in September 2024, following the 2023 ECCAS ministerial conference on gender and women’s empowerment.

These women are now equipped to lead change and advocate for the inclusion of women and girls in peacebuilding across Cameroon.

This initiative was made possible thanks to the support of , , , , , and .

Le 19 août, à l’occasion de la Journée Mondiale de l’Aide Humanitaire, OCHA Cameroun, en collaboration avec les agences humanitaires et partenaires, a organisé une journée portes ouvertes à UNIC.

Dr Issa Sanogo, Coordonnateur Résident des Nations Unies et Coordonnateur Humanitaire pour le Cameroun, a lancé un appel fort :
« Ne détournons pas le regard, agissons pour l’humanité. » En 2025, plus de 3,3 millions de personnes au Cameroun ont besoin d’assistance humanitaire, en raison des catastrophes naturelles, du changement climatique et de l’insécurité.

L’événement a permis de renforcer les liens entre les acteurs humanitaires, les citoyens et les partenaires, dans un esprit de solidarité et d’engagement.
