Participatory monitoring breathes life into #Cameroon’s Marine Protected Areas

Environmental NGOs, activists, and community members are coming together to safeguard Cameroon’s protected marine ecosystems. @BongbenL https://t.co/TDrwsSvA4W

[Leocadia Bongben Jisi @BongbenL]

Cameroon like many other countries committed to the 30x30 marine conservation target with the creation of MPSs. But are the MPAs serving the purpose for which they were created? I set out to Manyangue Na Elombo Campo to find out as @earthjournalism grantee.

Parents and families need to break the spiral of silence around sexual and reproductive health. Talk with their children to make them feel secure and open up to them. @sogoc_cameroon keep leading the way for meaningful conversations.

#DayOfTheAfricanChild

[SOGOC Cameroon @sogoc_cameroon]

Educating families about sexual reproductive health creates a safe space for open dialogue. When parents are informed, they can address concerns, myths, and encourage children to ask questions without fear.

The laws on children's sexual rights and reproductive health must be seen to be protecting children and not just on paper.

@sogoc_cameroon Rape in the family is violence and a crime.

[Cameroon Factfinder @factfindermedia]

Silence makes you a partner in crime. Stop protecting the family name, what people will say, and report rape in the family.
