Job type: International

Internal collaboration : Collaboration with WCS Paysage Bouba Ndjidda – BĂ©nouĂ© (PBN-B) program departments, WCS Cameroon national office team (YaoundĂ©), WCS Regional team in Kigali (Rwanda) and other scientific programs of WCS and its partners.

Expected travel : Regular travel in the WCS intervention zone in the North Cameroon region: Benoue and Bouba-Ndjidda national parks and Sena Oura national park in Chad. Possible interventions in other protected areas in the region, such as Faro and Waza national parks. Other occasional trips to Yaoundé.

WCS’s mission is to preserve the world’s wildlife and wild places through science, conservation measures, awareness-raising and by encouraging people to respect nature.

Wildlife Conservation Society works to safeguard wildlife and natural habitats through a rigorous scientific approach, and international environmental education program and the management of the world’s largest network of urban wildlife parks. These activities contribute to changing people’s attitudes towards nature, and aim to promote viable and sustainable interaction between people and wildlife on a local and global scale. WCS is committed to this work because we believe it is essential to the integrity of life on earth. WCS has been present in Cameroon since 1988, and since then has been working with the government of Cameroon to create several protected areas, training numerous conservationist managers, and doing so in an integrated landscape approach that brings together the key players to protect biodiversity sustainably. The WCS Cameroon program is currently working on three main landscapes: the Takamanda-Mone, Mbam & Djerem and Bouba Ndjidda – BĂ©nouĂ© (PBN-B) landscapes. The latter includes the BĂ©nouĂ© National Park (PNB) Technical Operational Unit (UTO) and the Bouba Ndjidda National Park (PNBN) UTO. The UTOs encompass national parks and Zones d’IntĂ©rĂȘts CynĂ©gĂ©tiques (ZICs). The PBN-B is also interconnected with the Sena Oura National Park (PNSO) in Chad, via the binational project, BSB Yamoussa, supervised by COMIFAC, thanks to funding from the German Development Cooperation (KfW).

Grant Opportunities: Call for Proposals: Framework to assess Readiness for Resilient and Inclusive Recovery Project – fundsforNGOs

0

Deadline: 20-Sep-24

The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction is pleased to invite qualified organizations to submit their respective proposals for the “Framework to assess Readiness for Resilient and inclusive Recovery” project.

Purpose
  • The primary objective of this call for proposal is to analyze and evaluate the critical criteria that determine resilient recovery readiness based on experience of different countries.
  • By examining case studies of recent disaster events in Turkey, Wayanad (India), Philippines, Tonga, Brazil, Mexico, USA, Fiji, Mozambique, Malawi, Portugal, Germany, Japan, Pakistan, Indonesia and Iraq. The primary goal of this initiative is to design an evidence-based, adaptable framework that can assess and enhance recovery readiness of countries. The framework should include KPIs that allow for the measurement of preparedness, effectiveness, and efficiency in post-disaster recovery, drawing on lessons from the selected case studies to ensure relevance across varied socio-economic, geographic, and cultural contexts.
  • This proposal aims to:
    • Identify the key factors contributing to successful recovery efforts to build back better.
    • Evaluate the readiness related effectiveness of existing governance structures, policies, capacity, data, knowledge, financing and practices in enhancing resilience.
    • Provide recommendations for strengthening readiness of recovery mechanisms globally.
    • Compile list of KPIs/indicators which contributes to measuring readiness for recovery along with specific examples of actions.
Funding Information
  • The maximum amount requested from UNDRR for the implementation of this project cannot exceed 140,000USD.
Duration
  • The duration of the proposed project cannot exceed 31st December 2024.
Outcomes
  • Assessing readiness for resilient recovery would lead to several positive outcomes for countries, including:
    • Enhanced Preparedness: Countries can identify gaps in their disaster response and recovery systems, enabling them to implement proactive measures to improve readiness before disasters strike. This helps in mitigating the impact of future disasters.
    • Faster Recovery: By understanding their recovery readiness, countries can streamline processes, reduce delays, and ensure faster mobilization of resources post-disaster, leading to quicker recovery times for affected communities.
    • Stronger Institutional Capacity: Assessment encourages the strengthening of institutional frameworks and coordination mechanisms across government, private sector, and civil society, improving overall governance and decision-making during recovery efforts.
    • Improved Resource Allocation: With a clear understanding of recovery readiness, countries can prioritize resources and investments more effectively, ensuring they are deployed where most needed, improving the efficiency of recovery programs.
    • Resilient Infrastructure: Readiness assessments promote the incorporation of resilient infrastructure planning, ensuring that rebuilt systems—whether physical, social, or economic— are better able to withstand future disasters.
    • Inclusive Recovery: Assessing readiness ensures that recovery plans are inclusive, considering the needs of vulnerable populations, and fostering gender-sensitive approaches, leading to more equitable recovery efforts.
    • Risk Reduction: A readiness assessment provides insights into existing vulnerabilities, allowing for the design and implementation of more robust disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies, reducing future disaster impacts.
    • Sustainability and Long-Term Recovery: Countries that assess their readiness are better equipped to adopt a long-term recovery horizon, focusing on sustainable recovery that integrates economic, environmental, and social dimensions, reducing the likelihood of repeated disasters.
    • Greater Collaboration: The process fosters coordination and collaboration among stakeholders—governments, private sector, civil society, and international partners—leading to more cohesive and well-integrated recovery efforts.
Eligibility Criteria
  • All International and national non-governmental organizations that wish to be considered for partnership opportunities with UNDRR will need to register and create a profile on the United Nations Partner Portal (UNPP). Following verification of the profile information, partners will be eligible to apply to partnership opportunities with UNDRR as well as the UN Secretariat and all other participating UN Organizations.
  • Only registered organizations whose profile has been successfully verified will be considered eligible partners to apply for grant opportunities with UNDRR.

Grant Opportunities: World Cancer Research Fund International announces Regular Grant Programme – fundsforNGOs

0

Deadline: 30-Oct-24

The World Cancer Research Fund International is pleased to announce the Regular Grant Programme to support innovative and original research into the role of diet, nutrition and physical activity in either Cancer Prevention or Cancer Survivorship.

Types of Grants
  • The Regular Grant Programme comprises two main grant types:
    • Investigator Initiated Grants 
      • Investigator initiated grants (IIGs) are for established researchers working on the research areas and themes. They encourage collaboration with other teams; therefore, it is important to have at least one co-applicant. The aim of this grant funding scheme is to support innovative and original research into the link of diet, nutrition and physical activity in either Cancer Prevention or Cancer Survivors.
    • Pilot and feasibility grants
      • Pilot and feasibility grants (PFGs) are intended as startup funds for preliminary research to allow researchers to collect preliminary data or test study parameters to take them to a stage where an application for an IIG would be appropriate. PFGs could also study behavioural change in cancer survivors.
      • Lifestyle interventions intending to change behaviour, including change in diet, physical activity, and change related to body composition should have a clear theoretical basis for the mechanism of action and predicted outcomes of the behavioural change.
Research Principles
  • Relevant exposures
    • The aim of the grant programme is to fund research that helps elucidate the role of diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity in cancer.
    • Relevant exposures encompass both confirmed and possible cancer risk factors related to diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity.
    • Exposures must be well defined and could include:
      • Diet, dietary patterns, other diet related behaviours and – provided that they are part of the usual diet – foods, food components and dietary supplements. Please note that proposals focusing on the role of isolated food or herb extracts that are not part of the usual diet will not be accepted.
      • Markers of nutritional status, including physiological or metabolic markers; body composition, and measures of growth, development and maturation.
      • Physical activity, physical fitness, time spent being sedentary, metabolic or other markers related to physical activity and physical activity related behaviours.
      • Only research pertaining to contaminants included in the Third Expert Report will be accepted.
  • Cancer-related outcomes
    • Outcomes should be specific and well defined. Relevant outcomes include cancer endpoints as well as recognised surrogate markers of cancer (these do not include risk factors such as obesity, oxidative stress, hormone levels, behavioural change but factors that reflect the cancer process e.g. mammographic density, colorectal adenomas, leukoplakia, Barrett’s oesophagus) or cancer outcome (e.g. pathological complete response to therapy), but applications must justify the use of a particular surrogate marker.
  • Relevance to human cancer
    • Studies must be justified in terms of their direct relevance to human cancer. Experimental designs outside in vivo human settings, such as animal models, will only be considered for relevant studies that examine mechanistic pathways of the cancer process.
    • Applications that propose studies performed exclusively in cell lines will not be accepted.
    • The relevance to humans and to human cancer of the proposed animal model will need to be clearly explained.
Impact Areas
  • The research they fund research must have beneficial implications for people’s lives by improving the understanding the role of diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity in cancer. The outcome of the research must, in some way, contribute towards helping reduce people’s risk of developing cancer, or improve outcomes in people living with and beyond cancer. Applicants need to demonstrate they have considered the potential impact of their research in relation to the following areas, as appropriate:
    • Potential for translation into clinical practice
    • Usefulness to other researchers in the field
    • Outreach to the general public or patients
    • Influence on public health, including, when relevant, in policy settings
    • Sustainable development goals and application of environmentally conscious practices
Research Areas
  • Applications to the Regular Grant Programme must fall into either the Cancer Prevention or the Cancer Survivors Research Area.
  • For the Cancer Prevention Research Area, they accept research into the links relating diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity to the causation or primary prevention of cancer. The Cancer Survivors Research Area focuses on individuals who have received a cancer diagnosis.
Research Themes
  • There are two Research Themes that apply to both research Areas, and one that applies only to the Cancer Survivors Research Area.
    • Mechanisms Research Theme
      • The Mechanisms research theme applies to both Research Areas, and covers molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms that help explain the biological connection between relevant exposures and cancer development or progression. This type of research must be coherent with existing laboratory, epidemiological and clinical evidence. Research in this
      • Theme is especially likely to benefit from interdisciplinary work and the use of new technologies, such as genomics, epigenomics and metabolomics, but such studies should be hypothesis driven and based on preliminary data. For this Theme, they welcome both laboratory studies and epidemiological studies that explore the mechanisms underpinning links between diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity, and cancer- related outcomes.
    • Host factors Research Theme
      • The Host factors research theme applies to both Research Areas and covers factors that might explain the variability between people in their susceptibility to cancer or the biological abnormalities predisposing to it. It also applies to the variability in outcomes after a cancer diagnosis, including in response to treatment. Variation in susceptibility to cancer or in its progression is likely to be influenced by host factors. These might be fixed, such as age, gender, ethnicity and genetic variation, or potentially modifiable, such as hormonal, immunological, metabolic and epigenetic influences. They are interested in how diet, nutrition (including body composition) and physical activity exposures throughout the life course might interact with or operate through
Funding Information
  • Investigator Initiated Grants: IIGs are awarded to Principal Investigators for a maximum of ÂŁ500,000 for up to four years.
  • Pilot and feasibility grants: These grants are for a maximum of ÂŁ60,000 in total for up to two years
Eligibility Criteria
  • The World Cancer Research Fund International Research Grant Programme accepts applications from anywhere in the world except the Americas (North America, Central America including the Caribbean, and South America).
  • World Cancer Research Fund International encourages international collaborations. Please note that although the Principal Investigator of an application cannot be from an institution based in the Americas, co-applicants and collaborators can be based in those countries, and a portion of the research work can be carried out at their institutions.
  • Applications with the Principal Investigator based in a low- and middle-income country are also encouraged, such as for high quality studies that explore relevant exposure-outcome links in under-researched regions or population. Applicants should ensure the relevant expertise has been secured, for example through appropriate international collaborations.
  • The Regular Grant Programme accepts applications from universities, medical schools, hospitals, research institutes and other academic centres. Research for commercial organisations is not eligible.

Consultancy to Conduct a Multi-Sectoral Needs Assessment in the North West and Far North Regions, Cameroon

1.) Background

CBM is an international Christian development organization committed to improve the quality of life of persons with disabilities in the poorest countries of the world with over 110 years of experience. In Cameroon, CBM works with local partners to implement programs in health for the prevention and management of disabilities, inclusive education and livelihood and inclusive humanitarian response. Through Disability Inclusive Humanitarian Action (DIHA), CBM has been working to ensure that all persons affected by natural and manmade disasters have access to inclusive humanitarian assistance. CBM is also a certified partner of DG-ECHO since 2021. Our Humanitarian activities aim to equally reach and actively involve persons with disabilities with specific needs while promoting and facilitating full inclusion in mainstream services.

Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Services (CBCHS) is a locally registered non-profit organisation (Faith Based Organisation, FBO) which is a leading health care provider in Cameroon and also implements programs with funds sourced from various donors. As a CBM partner, CBCHS areas of focus include prevention of blindness, improving access to health and rehabilitation services, and supporting people with disabilities go to school, earn a living and secure respect in their communities. CBM has been working with CBCHS as an implementing partner since 1982. Within this partnership and in the context of humanitarian crises in Cameroon, CBM has implemented projects with CBCHS funded by the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development **(**BMZ) responding to the crises in the Far North Region (ongoing since 2023) and another project funded by the German Federal Foreign Office (GFFO) responding to the crises in the North-West Region (Anglophone Crisis), 2021 – 2023. With additional support from UNICEF, UNFPA, UNHCR and other partners, the CBCHS has been responding to the Health, Nutrition, WASH and Child Protection needs of crisis affected persons in the NW and SW regions since 2019. CBCHS co-leads the health cluster for the NW and has been supporting the MSNA process by training data collectors for Health and Nutrition clusters.

In line with the requirements for the submission of a project to ECHO in the framework of HIP 2025, CBM Cameroon and CBCHS are seeking to conduct a MSNA that will guide us in planning a tailor-made response to meet the specific needs of the affected populations, with a particular focus on people with disabilities and that will inform the donor about the situation of crises affected people living in two ECHO priority areas (North West and the Far North Regions of Cameroon), taking into consideration IDPs, Refugees, Returnees, Persons with Disabilities and their host communities.

Contextual Background

The socio-political crisis in the North West (NW) and South West (SW) regions of Cameroon and the Lake Chad Basin crisis in the Far North have seriously damaged the local economy and deteriorated the humanitarian situation of people in these regions. Beyond human losses, there are vast displacements; with its corollaries on the social system (OCHA, 2024).

OCHA in 2023 advanced that an estimated 4.7 million people across Cameroon will need humanitarian assistance and 2.7 million vulnerable persons were targeted. Findings reveal that as of October 2023, the HRP 2023 was funded at 107.7 M with only 758K people reached so far, leaving hundreds of thousands of people without lifesaving assistance and protection.

In 2024, ECHO’s Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for Cameroon, highlights that 3.4 million people (about the population of Oklahoma) need humanitarian assistance. Among those in need, the HRP targets 2.3 million vulnerable women, girls, men, and boys in need of humanitarian assistance and protection services in the most-affected areas and this requires US$371.4 million to humanitarian emergency response.

Given that these conflicts are characterized by destruction of the already fragile economy, massive displacements, and exacerbated by the COVID 19 outbreak, its consequences on the populations of the three embattled regions are disastrous; with the most vulnerable: persons living with disabilities, older people, women, and children suffering the most as vital sectors are being targeted.

Health Situation in the North West Region of Cameroon

In 2023, the health situation in Cameroon’s North West region has been profoundly impacted by ongoing violence and conflict. According to a report by the Safeguarding Health in Conflict Coalition, there were at least 31 documented incidents of violence against or obstruction of health care in Cameroon this year, marking a nearly 30% increase in such incidents (SHCC, 2023).

The escalation in violence is primarily attributed to armed clashes between SSFs and the NSAGs. This conflict has led to direct attacks on health facilities, including kidnappings, hospital raids, and the burning of health centers.

The humanitarian crisis is further exacerbated by outbreaks of diseases such as Measles, Mpox and cholera, compounded by flooding. The health sector has been significantly impacted by these crises, with a severe shortage of medical personnel—currently, there is only one doctor per 10,000 people. Many communities are now reliant on traditional medicine due to the inaccessibility of modern health services. In other communities now, facilities are mostly ran by CHWs who for the most part are under skilled to fully respond to the health needs of the people as skilled personnel have vacated their areas of work due to insecurity.

The combination of violent attacks on health care infrastructure and the severe shortages of medical supplies and personnel has left over one million people internally displaced and 4.7 million in need of humanitarian aid (SHCC, 2023). Urgent measures are required to protect health workers and ensure the continuity of health services for affected populations in the region.

The CBCHS is a healthcare provider in the North West region with a reputation of providing affordable high quality care. The high volume intake of patients has over the years been a contributing factor for the sustainability of this health system. However, with the current crises situation, the high volume of patients visiting these facilities have had challenges paying for their medical car, thus requiring pro poor approaches including partnering with programs that can enable patients to be treated for free.

Protection

Protection issues are severe, with reports indicating that up to 1 in 5 women and girls in conflict-affected areas have experienced sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) (OCHA, 2024). Child protection remains a significant concern, with an estimated 12,000 children separated from their families due to conflict (UNICEF, 2024). Additionally, persons with disabilities face significant barriers, with only 15% of humanitarian programs in the region incorporating disability-inclusive measures (IASC, guidelines)

Livelihood

In the North West region of Cameroon, livelihoods have been severely disrupted due to ongoing conflict and economic instability. Over 80% of households have lost their primary sources of income, largely due to displacement and the destruction of local economies (World Bank, 2024). The COVID-19 pandemic has compounded these issues, causing unemployment rates to surge to 40% in some areas.

Persons with disabilities are particularly hard-hit. They face additional barriers to employment and income generation, which are exacerbated by the conflict and economic downturn. Many individuals with disabilities experience heightened challenges in accessing available economic opportunities due to physical and social barriers, leading to increased dependency and poverty. This group, along with the elderly, women, and children, finds it increasingly difficult to cope with the compounded effects of economic hardship and displacement, further eroding their economic resilience and stability.

2.) General Objective of the MSNA

The general objective of this multi-sectoral needs assessment is to provide an overview of the situation of IDPs, Refugees, Returnees, and host population including persons with disabilities in the North West and Far North regions by assessing their needs relating to protection, health, and livelihood.

Specific Objectives of MSNA

  • To assess the variations in health, protection, and livelihood humanitarian needs across geographic areas, population groups, and vulnerability profiles to inform response, prioritization and strategic planning.
  • To assess the severity of the needs of Persons with disabilities, IDPs, Refugees and the host communities relating to protection, health and livelihood
  • To assess the inclusiveness from a disability point of view of the different actors working to meet the needs of the IDPs, Refugees, Returnees, hosts communities and persons with disabilities in the targeted regions, taking into consideration protection and health needs.
  • To identify the gaps in service provision for IDPs, Refugees, returnees and the local population in the targeted regions, with particular focus for Persons with Disabilities.
  • To map the humanitarian actors in the targeted regions, their activities, the gap non covered by them.

In general, the consultant will be tasked with identifying and mapping the population groups affected by the crises in the targeted regions, with a focus on their specific health, protection and livelihood needs. This analysis will encompass the following areas:

Health

Health Mapping as per WHO six building blocks: The consultant will develop a comprehensive health mapping including services available, accessibility, services available to persons with disabilities, host communities and IDPs. This map should detail:

  • Available Services: Identify which health services are still operational within the intervention areas.
  • Accessibility Conditions: Assess the conditions under which people can access these services, including any barriers faced by different population groups.
  • Accessibility for Persons with Disabilities: Specifically highlight whether these health services are accessible to persons with disabilities, noting any gaps or limitations.

Health Needs: Identify and document the specific health needs of the affected populations, taking into account how the crisis in the North West region has exacerbated these needs. This includes evaluating the adequacy of current health interventions and identifying areas requiring improvement.

Protection

Protection Risks: Assess and document the protection risks faced by individuals in the targeted regions. This includes:

  • Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV): Examine the prevalence of SGBV and the associated risks, and evaluate the support systems in place for survivors.
  • Child Protection: Focus on the situation of children who have been separated from their parents due to conflict, particularly in the areas targeted.
  • Civil Documentation: Explore challenges related to access to civil documentation (disability cards for persons with disabilities), which can affect individuals’ ability to receive services and protection.

In summary, the need is for a multi-faceted approach that integrates SGBV prevention and response, child protection, and support for obtaining civil documentation to create a comprehensive support system for vulnerable populations affected by conflict.

Livelihoods

1. Impact on Livelihoods: Assess how the crisis has impacted the livelihoods of affected populations in the target areas. This will include:

  • Economic Disruption: Evaluate the extent to which livelihoods have been disrupted, including loss of income, employment, and access to resources.
  • Community Resilience: Analyze the resilience of communities and the availability of support systems to help individuals regain or sustain their livelihoods.
  • Assess most appropriate livelihood activities adapted to these populations in the target areas and for persons with disabilities

Program Evaluation

Review current humanitarian programs in the North West and Far North regions to determine if they are inclusive of persons with disabilities, in line with IASC guidelines. This involves:

  • Disability Inclusion: Assess how well these programs involve persons with disabilities and their organizations in all phases of the project cycle, from planning through implementation and evaluation.
  • Gaps and Recommendations: Identify any gaps in disability inclusion and propose specific actions to address these gaps.

Based on the evidence collected in the field, the consultant will propose actionable recommendations to improve the living conditions of affected populations in the targeted regions and areas, with a focus on enhancing health services, protection measures, and livelihood support.

The consultant’s final deliverables will include a detailed report outlining the findings and recommendations in these areas, aimed at informing and improving the effectiveness of humanitarian interventions targeted by CBM in these areas.

Grant Opportunities: Call for Applications: Breaking Down Barriers to Health Services Program 2024 – fundsforNGOs

Deadline: 30-Sep-24

Are you a young activist in Cameroon, Cote d’Ivoire, Senegal or Tunisia, with an interest in driving social change and reducing human rights-related barriers to health services? If you are, this exciting Breaking Down Barriers to Health Services Program may be for you!

This program strengthens youth leadership in the fight against HIV, TB and malaria.

The program brings together civil society organizations and journalists to support community-led efforts to remove human rights-related barriers to health services through enhanced communication and media engagement skills, while supporting journalists to report on these issues with accuracy and authority.

Program Principles
  • The program is designed to be practical and interactive, and participants will work on real world issues they face in their work, as well as hypothetical scenarios. Participants will be expected to contribute to discussions, and to share insights from their own experience.
  • They emphasize that all engagement opportunities over the course of the program, including the in-person training, are a safe environment, and that respect and fairness are crucial.
  • The Global Fund and Thomson Reuters Foundation expect:
    • Participants to provide respectful, constructive, and meaningful contributions during and after the course.
    • Civil society and journalist participants to forge networks and identify issues for appropriate reporting and content generation.
    • All participants to engage with one another, share knowledge and experience of their work and examples of how they may have overcome challenges.
    • Ongoing and active engagement in the program stages.
Stages
  • Program participants will have the opportunity to progress through the following stages:
    • Onboarding onto the program through one-to-one conversations with the Global Fund and/or Thomson Reuters Foundation staff.

These joint sessions will offer opportunities for practicing skills with professional peers, learning more about one another’s work, and networking.

On completion of the program, participants are expected to have greater understanding of best practices, and increased confidence and motivation with regards to reporting or communicating on human rights issues relating to health services. Participants will also understand how to access legal support through the TRF TrustLaw network.
  • The longer-term program will provide course alumni with opportunities to engage in follow up activities, including joint sessions to foster CSO-journalist interaction. TRF and the Global Fund see this long-term approach as fundamental to fostering a productive network of CSOs and journalists equipped with the tools and knowledge to explain how efforts to reduce human rights-related barriers to health services must be an integral part of efforts to improve the health of everyone in society.
