The Africa region's acute lack of basic amenities such as health centres and personnel, sanitation facilities, and unsafe drinking water presents serious health challenges. These are further intensified by the high incidence of malaria and HIV/AIDS.
A large part of our field activities are geared towards internally displaced people (IDPs) and refugees. With the number of people who have been forcibly displaced doubling over the last decade, their health needs continue to mount, and are not always met. Our roots were put down in the camps set up for Congolese and Republique centrafricaine refugees. ADC-CAR has a long history of assisting and protecting these populations.
Having sufficient personal protective equipment is crucial for the emergency services personnel and health professionals on the frontlines of combating COVID-19, ADC-CAR is making excess PPE available to these responders, and we also stand ready to perform missions we may be called upon to fulfill in this ongoing fight.
ADC-CAR assists in the formation of Common Initiative Groups in the communities in which it works, to encourage economic development and increased entrepreneurial activity through collective action. ADC-CAR also offers business training, group dynamics instruction, and technical advice to enable the creation of successful groups and sound investment strategies. ADC-CAR is also partnering with communities in Cameroon, in terms of funding and the provision of materials and information, in the creation of small-scale income generating operations.
The dense forests of the Africa region are a source of livelihood and resources for its residents. However, the over-use of forest products such as timber and wild crops, as well as harmful cultivation practices, specifically, slash and burn clearing, threatens the natural environment.
