CBC project set to identify, assist vulnerable persons

A project designed to identify and assist vulnerable persons in the North West has been launched in the regional capital of Bamenda.

The Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Services has organized a three-day workshop for community volunteers wherein they are being educated on the ways of identifying the needs of beneficiaries like the elderly, disabled, and displaced.

The coordinator of the Disability Inclusive Humanitarian Action program details that the project through its 77 community volunteers will focus on improving inclusive humanitarian assistance to internally displaced persons and persons living with disabilities in communities of the North West.

The humanitarian actors will receive support that will permit them to mainstream disability in their actions.

The same project will be executed in the South West region by the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon to run for two years.
