Greetings:
The purpose of this report is to update our sponsors, supporters and women in 28 villages about the continuous progress that our organization is making in order to promote human rights and fundamental freedoms for the women in our villages. It is certain that following the expected impact of this project, the number of women participating in training programs on empowerment of rights, gender equality, and economic development will increase to a level that the inalienable rights of women and girls will be more respected and affordable. We are assisting our clients to develop and set goals to become successful in the pursue of individual small entrepreneur, businesses and skill, vocational training skills and experiences.
Currently, we are collaborating with other NGOs and international groups using access to technology to continue our work with developing classes and projects to bring awareness of the needs of women and youth, especially those from the Meta Villages , Momo Division, NW/SW Regions in Cameroon, Africa.
With the outbreak of the Corornavirus world-wide, we believe that our women will take the lead and play a positive role in leading our people during this crisis as they have led our people doing the ongoing war against the people from the NW/SW Regions in Cameroon, Africa. Health and Sanitation is the key to reducing the spread of this virus.
Cameroon has about 200 tribes in 10 regions. Each tribe has distinct cultural norms that discriminate and abuse women and girls. Moreover there is a critical absence of "rule of law" leading to rampart abuse of basic freedoms and rights of minorities like Anglophones who are marginalized and discriminated against by the majority government in education, legal, social, economic, political, and cultural rights. Our project is necessary to correct the injustice meted out on Anglophone women and girls.
Our goal and objective is to support the protection, mitigation, and responses to human rights violations and abuse of the most vulnerable, by strengthening human rights frameworks, institutions and oversight by providing support to local, and key international, human rights organizations and institutions with particular focus on women and youth. Strengthen the capacity of community based organizations, including faith-based associations through civic education and citizen participation to advocate for education, legal, social, economic, political, and cultural rights for women and youth.
Outcome of our efforts will be to continue to facilitate sustainable education and awareness of rights that can enable marginalized and those discriminated against to learn new trades and economic activities to become self-sufficient and alleviate chronic poverty and diseases within a year given sufficient resources as requested. Development will improve if people are liberated and provided with basic education, health, safety, a clean and protected environment, and empowered to represent and speak for themselves which are all alienable human rights.
