Action contre la Faim est présente au Cameroun depuis 1998. Depuis 2014, nos interventions se situent principalement dans la Région de l’Est et l’Extrême-Nord du pays sur des programmes d’urgence initiés auprès des réfugiés centrafricains et des communautés d’accueil affectées par les troubles sociopolitiques en RCA et les violences liées à l’activité de Boko Haram dans la région du lac Tchad. ACF a mis en place des programmes de nutrition et d’eau, d’assainissement et d’hygiène à long terme avec le soutien d’ECHO et de SIDA pour plus de 150 000 bénéficiaires. Depuis fin 2018, ACF, sous le nom d’Action contre la Faim (AAH), est également présente dans le Sud-Ouest, en soutien à la crise qui sévit dans cette région.
Environ 200 salariés sont en mission, répartis sur 5 bases : Batouri dans l’Est, Maroua et Kousseri dans l’Extrême-Nord, Buéa dans le Sud-Ouest et la coordination à Yaoundé.
Le Cameroun est un pays assez stable.
