AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Public Health Workforce: Cameroon plans to hire 12,242 public-sector workers in 2026, with education and healthcare leading—health recruitment targets 4,064 roles, including absorbing 2,944 health workers on precarious arrangements and adding 1,120 new professionals. Child Health & Nutrition Access: UNICEF handed over two high-mobility pick-up trucks to Cameroon’s Ministry of Public Health to reach underserved Adamawa and Far North communities, aiming to bring urgent care, therapeutic foods, and field clinics closer to children at risk of severe acute malnutrition. Water, Sanitation & Child Rights: On the Day of the African Child, the Cameroon Human Rights Commission urged faster progress on water, sanitation and hygiene, citing gaps between urban (82% clean water) and rural (52%) access and low rural sanitation (22%). NCD Prevention via Food: A Cameroonian nutrition epidemiologist argues Cameroon should integrate “fresh produce prescription” approaches into routine care to tackle high rates of hypertension and diabetes linked to salty, refined diets. Drug Safety Policy Watch: India’s move to make cough syrups prescription-only—after deadly contamination incidents—keeps the spotlight on medicine quality and safer dispensing, with global links including Cameroon. Maternal Care Support: MTN’s “21 Days of Y’ello Care” campaign is renovating and equipping Djoungolo Hospital’s maternal ward and expanding diagnostic capacity via a planned lab at Japoma District Hospital. Health System Capacity: Cameroon’s push to transfer management of Parcours Vita fitness hubs to municipalities includes a call for monitoring and reporting to the Prime Minister’s Office.
