Gender-based violence programming (i.e. prevention and response) and risk mitigation across all sectors is lifesaving and an institutional priority for us. We work together with partners, Reach out Cameroon and communities to address GBV and to implement quality programming to prevent, mitigate and respond.

Our primary purpose is to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees and other people who were forced to flee. We support Community to uphold their responsibility to ensure that people of concern are protected against GBV.

Across all our camping, seminar, training, we prioritize two mutually reinforcing objectives to address GBV:

  1. reducing the risk of GBV for all persons of concern;
  2. ensuring all survivors of GBV have adequate and timely access to quality services that meet their needs.

Good sexual and reproductive health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being in all matters relating to the reproductive system.

It implies that people are able to have a satisfying and safe sex life, the capability to reproduce and the freedom to decide if, when, and how often to do so.

To maintain one’s sexual and reproductive health, people need access to accurate information and the safety.

They must be informed and empowered to protect themselves.

And when they decide to have children, women must have access to skilled health care providers and services that can help them have a fit pregnancy, safe birth and healthy baby. Every individual has the right to make their own choices about their sexual and reproductive health.

ASSOCIATION OF WOMEN EMPOWERMENT CAMEROON (AWEC), together with it’s partners,
