Child survival and development in Cameroon
UNICEF is supporting the government at an upstream level in policy development through its Country Programme Cooperation Agreement 2022-2026. We focus on the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children to ensure that they have the best chance of a healthy life and a fulfilling childhood.
Every child has a right to a childhood, a future and a fair chance. UNICEF works to uphold the rights and well-being of all children in Cameroon, across health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene, education, protection and influencing policy.
