Summary

In 2022, the Shelter Cluster in the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon has done a lot of work to advance the understanding of the Shelter situation and vulnerabilities of the various populations affected by the crisis in the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon.

This document is a summary of the main shelter needs per population group and provides an overview of the different shelter and settlement typologies found throughout the four regions impacted by the internal displacement crisis. Many of the humanitarian needs are exacerbated by a lack of protection and more adequate shelter is a physical manifestation of that protection. The data and summary in this document is a result of various workshops and provides evidence on how a lack of shelter exacerbates these protection needs. The document is a compilation of the following resources:
