UNICEF Bertoua field Office covers the Eastern and Adamaoua regions with a population estimated at around 3 million inhabitants in 2023, spread over an area of 172,703 km (109,002 km² for the East and 63,701 km² for Adamaoua). These two regions represent more than a quarter (26%) of the surface area of Cameroon. They share a long border of almost 800 km with the CAR and host more than 270,000 Central African refugees, 70% of whom are integrated into the host communities and only 30% live in refugee camps. Furthermore, the Adamaoua region is home to more than 5,000 IDPs resulting from the socio-political crisis in the North-West and South-West. The Eastern and Adamaoua regions have among the lowest social and economic indicators in the country and are among the four most vulnerable regions in Cameroon.
In terms of HIV, despite the progress made, significant gaps persist for pregnant/breastfeeding women, children and adolescents living with HIV. To deal with this situation, UNICEF is supporting the Government through the HEALTH and HIV program on several priority areas: improving the quality and provision of newborn care, particularly Kangaroo Mother care and improving the availability and use of medical oxygen, support for vaccination and the implementation of community led interventions for the fight against the 3 killer diseases of children and the promotion of essential family practices through Multipurpose Community Health Workers (CHW), prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV, pediatric care and combined prevention of HIV in Adolescents. It is essential to support the Regions and districts of these two regions to accelerate progress in these priority areas.
