INCLUSIVE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT; CBCHS-SEEPD PROGRAM SCHOOLS COMMUNICATION OFFICERS.


Communication Officers drawn from 9 partner Councils of the SEEPD program of the CBC Health Services, have undergone a one day capacity building on inclusive communication, capturing and reporting of Community Based Inclusive Development CBID stories as well as the ability to upload, edit and update their various council's websites.


While opening the workshop, Mr. Tamon James, Representating the Director of CBC Health Board, challenged the Communication Officers, to mainstream inclusion in their various writeups in every area of Council development. This to him, will improve the quality of life of persons with disabilities.

From inclusive reporting to website management passing through social media corporate reporting, story writing and taking and documenting good pictures, the modules were tailored to enable the partner councils see the need to communicate their actions inclusively, using different channels, and putting in place an accessible website.


It should be noted that the Socio Economic Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities SEEPD program, is in its fourth phase and seeks to improve the quality of life of persons with disabilities so as to adopt inclusion as a core part of its mandate. To achieve this, the SEEPD program aims at strengthening mainstream systems and councils are key one of actors in this phase.

CAMAIR-CO PLANE FIRED AT BY NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS.

Southern Cameroonian fighters have fired at a Camairco plane in Bamenda, as the airliner was about to land at the Bamenda airport. The airliner, which has been grounded in Bamenda, took some bullets and will not be flying for sometime. The incident that occurred today December 1st 2109 is a clear indication that the Southern Cameroons crisis is far from over despite the optimism generated by the Major National Dialogue held in Yaounde in October 2019. Camairco is now among other state corporations which have been affected by the crisis. PAMOL, CDC, and SONARA have been hit hard by the crisis and this is a severe blow to the cash-strapped Yaounde government that is still hoping that time will help solve a problem that has become a millstone around its neck. Since the commencement of the crisis, the government of Cameroon has lost more than USD 50 billion due to the war and the country’s economy is in a free fall.
