initiative
Creating awareness on the reproductive health challenges in Cameroon by using animated videos/role plays which expose how different communities, traditions, and religions perceive girls and women’s access to reproductive health and the impact of this perception on girl’s and women’s education, health and future.
The campaign aims to use videos/animations and role plays as advocacy and educational tools to raise awareness on some of the issues affecting girls and women in rural communities in Cameroon. Being a woman from the global South and a Media for Development practitioner, I am conscious of the implication of representation and power because I believe that when people represent themselves, they exercise agency. This is why in implementing campaign, I will work with girls and women not just as content producers but also as solution providers
