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. This has led to a fragmented health care system, primary school education, suboptimal water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) Food insecurity and high rate of malnutrition. CAMAAY is working with several local communities affected by the crisis to ensure that Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) are supported.
