UNICEF has been working in Cameroon since 1975 to enable women and children to fully exercise their right to development without restriction, as enshrined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. UNICEF provides financial and technical support to Cameroon in seven areas to fully realize the rights of women and children. These areas include health, HIV/AIDS, water, sanitation and hygiene, nutrition, education, child protection and social inclusion. UNICEF focuses primarily on the most vulnerable and excluded children and families. The population of Cameroon in 2020 is estimated at 26,545,863 people according to UN data. The population is young and generates a strong socio-economic demand. In rural areas, limited access to basic social services and the effects of climate change have led to the impoverishment of households and severe deprivation for children.
