But the pace and scale of change is rapidly outstripping our ability to respond, stretching an overburdened humanitarian system to breaking point.@UNReliefChief@UNOCHA#COP27
Isn’t it the worst of ironies and the most blatant of injustices that those least responsible for the #ClimateCrisis are the most likely to suffer its impact and the least likely to receive climate financing?
My remarks.

Cholera continues to affect communities in #Cameroon Far North and North regions

Today marks the beginning of a new chapter. I have taken up my functions as Regional Director for Africa @ICRC_Africa.
Fragile contexts, protracted conflicts, millions of people counting on us to be present, principled, and effective.
I step in with humility and determination, and look forward to working alongside colleagues and partners across the continent.
Thanks to @UNCERF for providing urgent life-saving assistance, including cholera prevention, treatment, safe water and sanitation to people affected crises in #Cameroon Far North.
As of 12 August 2026, more than 1,200 cases and 31 deaths had been reported across the region.
"As we mark this day, we reaffirm that protecting humanitarian workers, preserving humanitarian action, ensuring access to people in need are obligations enshrined in international humanitarian law".

Journée mondiale de l'aide humanitaire
En 2025, plus de 350 travailleurs humanitaires ont perdu la vie. La grande majorité était des collègues nationaux.
Les acteurs humanitaires de l'Extrême-Nord, à Maroua, Kousseri, Mokolo, Mora et Yagoua, leur rendent hommage

In #Cameroon, food insecurity remains alarming.
In 2025, 3.1 million people faced acute food insecurity, including 250K in emergency levels needing immediate assistance.
Despite major funding gaps, humanitarian partners are delivering life-saving aid to those most in need.
More than 2,200 people have been recently displaced across Logone et Chari, Mayo-Sava and Mayo-Kani due to insecurity in #Cameroon’s Far North.
Despite funding constraints, humanitarian partners continue to mobilise emergency assistance.

Thanks to @UNCERF for enabling lifesaving support for communities forced to flee violence in the Far North and North-West regions of #Cameroon.

Major funding shortfalls are putting millions at risk in #Cameroon
Only 19% of food security needs are funded, while projections show up to 2.9M people could face acute food insecurity in 2026. Without early support, malnutrition & protection risks will worsen.
Humanitarian partners remain mobilised across crisis-affected areas in #Cameroon despite insecurity &funding constraints.
In December 2025, thousands people accessed lifesaving healthcare, protection, water, nutrition and education services, helping communities stay resilient.
People in Far North #Cameroon regularly face climate shocks, including floods and drought.
Partners continue to support communities affected by insecurity and disasters. Thousands of people received lifesaving assistance during the last months.

Once struggling with poor vision & low grades, 18-year-old Fanta received eye care & glasses from @CbmCameroon during a mobile clinic in Mora, Far North region.

As climate shocks continue to affect Far North #Cameroon, forcibly displaced families are facing additional strain.
Through @UNCERF support, partners are providing emergency shelter and assistance.
However, due to funding gaps, many vulnerable people still need support.
In #Cameroon, 1.4 million people in crisis-affected areas need health assistance.
Only 18% of required funding has been received.
On #WorldHealthDay, closing this gap is essential to ensure access to healthcare for all.
Investing in health means protecting lives!
