AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Pharma Capacity Boost: Cameroon says it has grown pharmaceutical production units from 7 (2020) to 19 (2026), yet locally made medicines still cover under 5% of national demand—citing financing gaps, energy issues, raw-material shortages, import competition, and delayed payments for public orders. Community Cholera Prevention: MSF and the Ministry of Health are working with Yaoundé communities in Djoungolo to cut cholera transmission by strengthening local cleaning, safe water and hygiene practices through neighbourhood-led action. Gender-Based Violence Push: Cameroon faces a “tip of the iceberg” problem as femicides rise; advocates call for earlier prevention, education, and stronger survivor support—not only responses after killings. Gender Violence Prevention in Schools: A back-to-school drive in Moli, Buea included sanitary pads, first-aid supplies, haircuts, and health support, linking education with menstrual hygiene and child wellbeing. Public Health & Safety: Cameroon Development Corporation (CDC) is asking government intervention after reports of more than 100 palm trees destroyed at Esuke, warning the damage could threaten livelihoods and recent investments. Regional Health Funding: A US global health funding shift is under scrutiny after USAID was dismantled and programs disrupted, with new bilateral agreements raising transparency concerns for HIV, TB, malaria, and maternal/child health support. Deportation Rights: A US court ordered the return of a Nigerian torture victim after ICE secretly deported him despite legal protections, highlighting serious health and rights risks for vulnerable migrants.
