Strengthening the country’s capacities for increased resilience and potential mitigation to climate change through agroforestry in the North and Far North regions Cameroon

Timeline: 2020-2022 (readiness phase)
Budget: USD eq 220,500 (XAF 135,944,000)

Programme brief:
The programme aims to enhance the resilience of communities in Northern and Extreme Northern Cameroon through agroforestry practices. The initiative focuses on strengthening local capacities for climate change mitigation and adaptation, promoting sustainable agricultural practices that integrate tree planting with crop production. This approach not only improves food security but also helps restore degraded lands, thus addressing both environmental and socio-economic challenges faced by these regions.

Programme concept note

Welcome to the Cameroon climate adaptation finance mapping tool!

This tool is designed to be a practical, user-friendly resource, enhancing the visibility of adaptation finance flows in Cameroon. It maps current and near-term local adaptation programmes and projects in Cameroon, as of end-2024, using publicly-accessible data.

This first iteration maps international public funding, laying the foundation for future layers and broader replication.

The tool follows a participatory and iterative approach. Built as a living resource, this tool will be updated over time and enriched with additional contributions. We invite collaborators to provide feedback and suggest adjustments and additions to the data.
