Our Mandate
APEHSD's mandate is to focus on promoting the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG1, SDG 4, SDG5, SDG6, and SDG16
OUR PROGRAM AREAS
Peace Building:
Peace is a vital instrument for community growth and development and without peace, there cannot be sustainable development. APEHSD engages in activities that promote peacebuilding, conflict prevention/ Resolution, Reintegration and reconstruction of communities highly affected by armed conflict and violence in Cameroon. APEHSD also engages in activities that promote peace education and the localization of SDG16 in grassroots communities of Cameroon.
Gender Equity and youth Engagement in National Development and Leadership
Advocates to Promote Education Health and Sustainable Development (APEHSD) is an organization that promotes equal opportunities for women and girls in Cameroon. Through this program area, APEHSD supports activities that combat harmful socio-cultural practices against women and girls in Cameroon. APEHSD engages in activities that fight against gender-based violence and promote women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR).
Youths make up 60% of Cameroon’s total population, making it very imperative for them to be included in Cameroon’s national development. Through this program area, APEHSD engages in building safe spaces for youth’s participation in local governance and promotes inclusiveness in achieving our vision.
Economic Empowerment
Poverty cannot be completely eradicated in Cameroon if the vulnerable population, women, girls and youths are not economically empowered to contribute to the national economic growth. Therefore, through this program area, APEHSD supports and implements activities aimed at economic empowerment, poverty alleviation and sustainable livelihood among communities in Cameroon.
Quality Education and SDG4+
SDG4 is the education goal, which calls all stakeholders to “Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all”. Education is the backbone of national development and sustainable change, and an uneducated population cannot contribute to national development. Through this program area, APEHSD localizes SDG 4 in Cameroon as well as ensures quality education cuts across all the other goals.
