Four years into the Anglophone Crisis coupled with the COVID 19 pandemic, hundreds have been recorded dead, over a thousand homes burned and over 900,000 people have fled their homes. Denis Miki Foundation is working with several local communities affected by the crisis to ensure that internally displaced women are supported to start micro-businesses, have access to their basic needs and basic health care through health insurance as they struggle to get settled in their new environments.
