AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoWater Security & Public Health: Cameroon has officially launched the operational phase of the €184.9m SEWASH Water Security Project, with a first Steering Committee meeting in Yaounde on June 29. The World Bank-backed programme (2025–2030) aims to expand access to safe drinking water and sanitation, strengthen water governance, and improve planning and service delivery across multiple regions. Urban Water Expansion: In parallel, Cameroon launched a CFA87bn project to expand Yaounde’s drinking water network, adding supply for about 30,000 more households over 36 months, including new pumping stations, reservoirs, pipelines and remote management to cut losses. Blood Supply & Safety: Cameroon’s National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS) says it collected about 187,224 blood units in 2025, reaching 47% of national needs, but still falls short of the estimated 400,000 units required annually—citing funding gaps and low voluntary donation rates. Menstrual Health in the Far North: Good Neighbors Cameroon and partners supported a project in Mehe to improve menstrual health education, tackling stigma and misinformation; officials say 98% of women and girls previously relied on old cloths.
