Providing Food To Internally Displaced persons and Poor Communities

Title: Improving the social and productive livelihoods of IDPs, returnees and the local population in the Northwest and Southwest Of Cameroon
Country: Cameroon
For millions of people, the ability to get the food they need has been suddenly and dramatically threatened by armed conflict and natural disasters. The misery of these people presses hard on the conscience of the international community, and their hunger is often a matter of life and death. The losses that accompany hunger are numerous – relatives lost to violence, homes and land abandoned, family assets such as the livestock and tools that are critical to food production and security gone, left behind or looted. Hard-won gains are destroyed for individuals, families, communities and society as a whole. Livelihoods are disrupted and development activities and goals are pushed aside, sometimes for years.
