CONTEXT

CARE is present in 100 countries and implements more than 1,000 emergency and development projects in collaboration with government and local development actors. Our objective is to fight against all forms of poverty, to defend access to fundamental rights, to combat social injustices.

In Cameroon since 1978, CARE has been implementing actions around 3 strategic axes: gender justice, health and climate and economic justice. Our actions are part of the emergency and resilience phases aimed at empowering women and young people, strengthening community systems, supporting decentralization processes and improving services and access to sexual and reproductive health. .

As part of the continuity of its objective which aims to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), CARE was renewed by the ICN as First Recipient (PR) to organize and coordinate interventions of the GC7 community grant (2024-2026). A specific and autonomous management unit is set up, made up of around fifty employees, which relies on an operational system built around 3 regional offices with 4 Sub-Recipients (SR) and several dozen Community-Based Organizations (SSR) in the 10 regions of Cameroon.
