Cameroon: Green and Resilient Septentrion – CaSeVe

Timeline: Dec 2021 – Oct 2025
Budget: EUR 20,000,000

Programme brief:
The “Green and Resilient North Cameroon” initiative, part of the Team Europe Initiative, will be implemented in the northern regions of Cameroon (North, Far North, and Adamawa). It aims to: (i) strengthen decentralised governance by coordinating European partners’ efforts, (ii) promote climate-smart agro-sylvo-pastoral practices to address land scarcity, and (iii) support conservation actors in protecting and sustainably managing hunting zones (ZIC) and national parks. The project is funded by the EU, Germany, and France, and focuses on improving local livelihoods, particularly for vulnerable groups like youth, women, and indigenous peoples, ensuring their rights and active participation in decision-making.
