The ongoing crisis in the North West & South West Regions of #Cameroon has caused untold hardship on the local population; with women and girls constituting the vulnerable group and often direct victims.
We are proud to partner with Hope Advocates Africa an organization specialized in providing psycho-social support and counselling to survivors of violence, in organizing a Trauma Healing Program for predominantly women and girls.
The session aims at offering participants the opportunity to heal from trauma or haunting experiences by telling their stories. Our #PeaceBuilding effort seeks to mitigate the effects of #hatespeech & #violence OFFLINE while promoting sustainable development through collective participation.
#defyhatenow in Cameroon seeks to support those voices acting against the conflict to go ‘viral’ within and outside the country – bringing the diaspora into the online peace building framework, bridging gaps of knowledge and awareness of social media mechanisms between those with access to technology and those without.
