Norwegian Refugee Council (Cameroon)

The Norwegian Refugee Council is an independent humanitarian organisation helping people forced to flee. We work in crises in more than 30 countries, where we help save lives and rebuild futures.

NRC started activities in Cameroon in April 2017 and is currently responding to three humanitarian crises simultaneously.

NRC opened its country office in April 2017 in the Far North region of Cameroon, followed by an office in the Southwest region in June 2018 and a sub-office in the Northwest region in March 2019. Here, NRC provides integrated multi-sector assistance, covering emergency needs and linking them to recovery interventions. In addition, NRC opened a sub-office in the East region in July 2019 to provide information, counselling, and legal assistance to refugees from CAR. NRC is a key advocacy actor though its leadership roles in coordination fora.
