The challenge in Cameroon
What the figures say
Since the 2019 General Code of Decentralised Local Authorities, municipalities and regions have taken on new responsibilities without the matching resources or capacity. Shared infrastructure lasts only if its governance is organised from the design stage.
Services in this domain
4 coded services
Cooperative houses
Cooperatives with no premises or management tools: informal meetings, lost records, little credibility with funders.
Rural training centres
No practical training facility close to producers; existing centres are run-down or poorly managed.
Community spaces
No places for dialogue and no local services in the village.
Territorial governance structures
Territorial projects run without a consultation framework: disputed decisions, infrastructure left without an owner once the project ends.
