Over 30 women have been drilled on the key messages to keep in mind while celebrating women’s day. This was during a round table discussions organised by Dynamic femmes in Nkongsamba in prelude to the upcoming international women’s day celebration.

The fight to promote womens rights is often misunderstood by most women, declares Madame NGUIONZA Rita Olivia, the director of the National Employment Fund in Nkongsamba. She explains that, most often when they speak of womens rights and equality, women think they are referring to them to disrespect their husbands and misbehave in their homes.

This was one amongst the many misperceptions that was adressed during the round table conference. Women were reminded that the international women’s day which we commemorate every year on the 8th of March is meant to celebrate the efforts made by our mytires to give equal rights and opportunities to women and girls just like the men. They also precise that the rights we are talking about range from education, autonomisation, equality in opportunities and many more.

The round table discussion had four sub themes that were drawn from the main theme « for all women and girls: Rights, Equality and Autonomisation ». These sub themes include; education and trainings, women and health, women power and decision making, women and economy
The discussions went on for over two hours, with women asking more and more questions for clarity.

The meeting ended at around 6PM. On the faces of the participants one can telm they were satisfied with the teachings from women leaders who played the role of panelists at the round table discussions.

Displaced women seeking refuge in Nkongsamba receive support for their agricultural ventures.

The women are drawn from eight common initiative groups and have been given various materials which include wheelbarrows, barrows and grinding mills.

They have received a one year intensive training on methods of cultivating, processing and commercializing their agricultural products.

The efforts of the farmers are being supported through a project known as, ‘Amplification of economic and social autonomisation of internally displaced women from the North West and South West regions of Cameroon through various trainings’.

It was sponsored entirely by Canada, from its inception in 2023.
Later on, the project was co-funded by Dynamic Femmes, which is in charge of three of the beneficiary common initiative groups.

During the ceremony to hand over the items, the president of Dynamic Femmes, Claudine Siewe saluted the efforts of members of her organization toward the acquisition of parcels of land and following up the farming groups, which she described as daunting tasks.

Canada’s High Commissioner to Cameroon, Lorraine Anderson who was present during the ceremony to hand over the agric inputs, encouraged the women to put their knowledge into practice, and step up their efforts so as to increase productivity.

Monthly projects coordination and evaluation meeting

On Thursday 30th January at Dynamic Femmes, we had a meeting with all the project cordinators of all on-going projects we currently have.
The aim of the meeting was to evaluate how far the projects have gone, the activities carried out under these projects, the difficulties encountered, recommendations and planning for the next month.

It is important to note that this was the first meeting of its kind for the month of January and it is envisaged to be held every month to ensure accountability.

It should be noted that, in every organisation, there must be cordination, supervision and evaluation for workers to do their work diligently. In the absense of this, you can work throughout but your objectives will not be attained.

A big shout out to the DynamicFemmsofficielle team members for a job well done.
