As of November 17th, approximately 500 000 people/ 65 000 households are affected by the flooding situation of Mayo-Danay and Logone-and-Chari Divisions in the Far-North of Cameroon. The water level is on the decrease in rivers and streams across the Mayo-Danay Division, but not yet in Logone-and-Chari Division, with the level and volume of water remaining exceptionally high overstretching the capacity of dykes. For instance, two dykes were damaged in the Logone-and-Chari Division, one on November 10th in Kousseri and one on November 17th in the village of Biamo (Makary Subdivision), destroying houses and shelters with more families rendered homeless.
Accessible and quality response to sexual and reproductive health including family planning, safe deliveries and emergency obstetric care as well as GBV protection services remain a priority as few partners are responding to the mentioned needs.
