Community Action for Development (CAD) is a conservation and development organization headquartered in Bangem and recognized under the law governing non-profit making associations in Cameroon. It was legally approved in 2003 by the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Decentralization via Prefectural Order No. 480/A/G.42/162/PS as an apolitical and non-profit making civil society organization.
We exist to promote sustainable community development initiatives through biodiversity conservation, livelihood support, water and sanitation and building strategic partnerships.
Enhancing Access to Potable Water
CAD works in the South-west Region of Cameroon, particularly in the Bakossi landscape and the Southern Bakundu Forest Reserve Areas in Kupe Muanenguba and parts of Fako and Meme Divisions. We work directly with women, men, unemployed youths, school children, peasant farmers, hunters, retired and retrenched workers, Common Initiative Groups (CIGs) and cooperatives.
