CADEF’s work saves and improves children’s lives around communities in Cameroon. We are relentless in driving change to promote children’s rights and equality for girls by working together with children, and young people, promoting learning and offering child protection services when children, their families and communities need it most. We are committed to helping all children achieve their full potential by ensuring they grow up healthy, receive a good education, and stay safe.

Securing children’s rights is the foundation of our work. Millions of children around the world are denied their rights, simply because of who they are or where they are from. We know that to ensure every child has the chance for a future, their rights must be upheld.

Through our programming, emergency responses, and advocacy, we put the most vulnerable children first, tackling the barriers to survival, learning, and protection.
