Cameroon is facing three parallel crises with different causes and consequences. Needs range from immediate lifesaving to protracted recovery. Since November 2017 the socio-political crisis in the North West and the South West regions turned into a situation of violence with increasing reports of human rights violations and abuses, including extra-judicial killings, arbitrary arrests and destruction of property, and rising humanitarian needs. Almost 680,000 Cameroonian are now internally displaced due to this crisis mainly in the North West and the South West regions. The number of people in need in the South West and North West regions has significantly increased from 1.3 million to 2.3 million (HRP 2020).
