Currently, our teams run medical humanitarian projects in the Far North, providing services such as medical care, surgical care, maternal and obstetric care, and psychological care.
We also provide emergency response to epidemics, such as cholera and measles. In the Far North, Littoral, Centre and South-West regions, we have recently provided support to the Ministry of Health to respond to the cholera outbreak.
Our medical activities in the North-West region were suspended in December 2020 by the authorities, and in the South-West, we decided to temporarily suspend activities after the arrest of four of our colleagues in December 2021 during an ambulance referral. We are in continued dialogue with the authorities to restart medical assistance in other regions.
Cameroon is facing multiple and overlapping crises, including recurrent epidemics, malnutrition due to food insecurity, displacement, and conflict. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) continues to respond to health emergencies, such as disease outbreaks, floods and mass displacement, in spite of a partial suspension of activities in 2022.
