Context:

Humanitarian needs in Cameroon remain high. According to the Humanitarian Needs Overview

2022 (HNO) published in December 2021, approximately 4 million people (or one in seven) are

in need of emergency assistance as the country continues to face three critical humanitarian

fronts (Far North region, North-West, South-West (NWSW) regions and East region’s refugee

crisis), in addition to the COVID-19 pandemic, a global health crisis with significant

socio-economic impacts.

In the Far North region of the country, the number of people displaced due to the Lake Chad

Basin conflict continues to increase. As of 30 September 2021, over 607,000 people were

displaced in that region, an increase of over 47,000 IDPs and returnees since September 2020.
