General description
Faced with the saturation of reference hospitals, the lack of equipment and staff in local health centers (notably in Briqueterie, Nkolndongo, Mvog-Mbi, Mendong, Nkolbisson), and the challenges related to maternal and child health (peri-urban areas such as Mfou, Soa, Nkoabang, Mbankomo), infectious diseases (malaria, typhoid) and chronic diseases, as well as the inadequacy of emergency services in Yaoundé, this mission aims to mobilize the diaspora. Priority actions include building and equipping peripheral health centers, strengthening district hospitals with modern equipment, increasing qualified medical staff, developing emergency services and a functional ambulance network, improving maternal and neonatal health, setting up early-screening programs for chronic diseases, ensuring regular and safe access to essential medicines, modernizing laboratories and medical imaging services, and strengthening hospital hygiene and biomedical waste management.
Impacts / Objectives
Significant improvement in access to and quality of healthcare for the people of Yaoundé, particularly in peri-urban areas. Reduced waiting times and hospital overload. A decrease in maternal and child mortality in the targeted areas. Better management and reduced prevalence of infectious and chronic diseases. The establishment of a more responsive and effective emergency system. Strengthened local capacities through skills transfer and the provision of modern equipment.
Contribution details
The diaspora can contribute in a targeted way to meet priority needs:
* **Investment**: Direct financing for the construction and equipment of local health centers and clinics, the acquisition of modern medical equipment (laboratories, imaging), and support for purchasing ambulances.
* **Skills**: Occasional missions by specialist doctors to strengthen local teams, telemedicine programs, training and upskilling of medical and paramedical staff (midwives, nurses), and expertise in hospital management and public health.
* **Donations**: Collecting and shipping essential medicines, basic medical equipment, and emergency equipment for under-resourced health facilities.
* **Networks of Influence**: Mobilizing international partners (NGOs, foundations) for funding and technical twinning, and promoting Yaoundé's public health programs to diaspora institutions and experts.
Mission conditions
A long-term commitment is desired for infrastructure projects. Flexibility for occasional skills-based missions. Compliance with local health standards and established protocols. Transparency in the use of funds and donations. Close collaboration with local health authorities and on-site medical teams.
