Notice of recruitment of a consultant for the production of a documentary on the constraints of access to education by internally displaced children in Cameroon
LOCATION: ALL-CAMEROON
DOCUMENTARY ON THE CONSTRAINTS ON ACCESS TO EDUCATION BY INTERNALLY DISPLACED CHILDREN IN CAMEROON: TERMS OF REFERENCE
context
The right to education is one of the fundamental rights inherent to all children without distinction. Its recognition as a human right comes from the fact that education is essential to the preservation and improvement of the dignity of every person. However, the socio-political and security crisis that has been raging in the two English-speaking regions of Cameroon (North-West and South-West) since 2016 has seriously impacted the schooling and/or access to education of children from these geographical areas.
Indeed, armed conflicts are undoubtedly one of the factors that hinder the process of children’s acquisition of knowledge following the absence or closure of educational institutions, school drop-out and the massive displacement of children. populations seeking security and well-being, including children. There are thus nearly 850,000 children deprived of school in the English-speaking regions [1] because of the crisis. This situation is accentuated by the lack of financial means of the parents, who once having found refuge in the host territory, struggle to provide for the primary needs of the household, and by extension, of the children; making these children already vulnerable by the effects of displacement more vulnerable.
According to the initial survey carried out at the start of the RIPDI project (2021), 32% of IDP children are not in school, yet before their displacement to host communities, 24% of them were in school. The parents’ lack of financial means (83%) has forced families to cut short the education of children, who for some have had to turn to small trades (14%) to contribute to the family’s expenses, or even worse , had to be enlisted in a union (child marriage).
Thus, it is regrettable to note that access to knowledge and to recreational activities which are of certain vitality for the development of any child becomes limited in times of crisis.
Faced with this situation, actions have been undertaken by the public authorities and local authorities since the arrival of IDPs in the host communities, such as the transformation of French-language schools into bilingual establishments, the increase in reception, the establishment of a half-time system, among other things. In support of these various actions, APDEL and its partners MoHCam and IHRDA, within the framework of the RIPDI project, strengthened the reception capacities of 9 schools with tables, benches and didactic materials, and provided 603 children with school kits. These actions have so far remained insufficient in view of the growing number of needy IDP children in the community; hence a plea for more action on the part of all stakeholders in the educational sphere. Thereby, as part of this project, funded by the Delegation of the European Union in Cameroon, the main actors intend to produce a mini documentary on the misdeeds of the non-schooling of internally displaced children in Cameroon. This is the raison d’être of these terms of reference.
