What will the funds raised be used for?
Your donations will enable Action Against Hunger to support its programs in two countries: the Central African Republic and Cameroon.
In the Central African Republic, a country facing a drastic decline in global funding despite a critical humanitarian situation, these donations will make it possible to:
- continue our efforts to ensure that communities—particularly children under five and pregnant and breastfeeding women—have access to healthcare, notably by training health workers, providing medical equipment and nutritional products, and rehabilitating infrastructure,
- support agricultural recovery while helping families develop additional sources of income,
- provide mental health care and psychosocial support,
- improve access to safe drinking water to reduce the risk of disease.
Cameroon is facing a multifaceted crisis, marked by insecurity linked to armed groups around Lake Chad in the Far North, intercommunal conflicts, and the presence of many refugees from the Central African Republic in the eastern part of the country. Food insecurity and the nutritional situation are extremely concerning in the Far North, with population displacement, recurring climate shocks in this Sahelian area, and intercommunal conflicts often linked to access to natural resources, all compounded by structural vulnerabilities.
In this context, and despite significant funding cuts since 2025, Action Against Hunger:
- implements emergency and resilience projects in the Far North and resilience projects in the East,
- deploys mobile clinics to provide healthcare in the most remote areas,
- strengthens mental health care,
- trains farmers in agroecological practices,
- supports youth employment and professional integration.
