The Diary Game: Project Development
It sure looks like it'll be a very busy week ahead for me.So as usual,i woke at the very early hours of the morning,spoke to my Lord,it was a lovely time.When i was done,i moved to my school work,i'm currently working on my master's theisis or project as we normally call it. I was was working on a different chapter,alot of thinking was involved,it was exciting and
and somewhat boring.i'm mostly between chapters because i feel like there's alot am not doing right.i really pray i'm doing the right thing,i'm putting in as much as i can but really feel tired on most days.I'm writing on the protection of the rights of Internally Displaced Persons in Cameroon.
Internal displacement is one of the major humanitarian,human rights and security problems in the world today.In the words of UN Secretary-General Ban ki-moon,displacement is "arguably the most significant humanitarian challenge that we face". It uproots,often violently,millions of people from their homes,families,jobs and communities and exposes its victims to a terrifying range of risks.Just one indication of the precarious plight of Internally displaced persons is the fact that some of the highest morbidity and mortality rates recorded in humanitarian emergencies have been among IDPs.
Left unadressed,internal displacement also threatens to destabilise countries,regions and even International Security and thereby risks generating additional displacement.Indeed,the number of IDPs throughout yhethe world has continued to increase since 1997.As of thr end of 2010,there were an estimated of 27.5 million kn 1997.Contrary to popular belief,there are far more IDPs than refugees: there were 15.4 million refugees at the end of 2010 but 27.5 million IDPs .No region of the world is immune to internal displacement.Africa is the continent most affected,with 11.1 million IDPs in the world(4.5 to 5.2million) ,while the Democratic Republic of Congo and somalia each have well over 1million IDPs.
The Cameroonian experience is not a far cry.Fatal natural and manmade disasters have been hitting the country as far back as the 1980s when Carbon dioxide erupted from lake Nyos,a situation which killed 1,746 and sacked 4,430 residents.
Recently,in August and September 2012,the flood emergencies were declared in North and Extreme North regions of Cameroon and the number of people displaced by flood was about 88,640.Most recently,in April 2014 an outbreak of cholera was reported in the far North region of the country,and as of July of the same year about 1,2333 cases were recorded.The result of this was the mass movement od people from the affected area.Between May and mid-June ,2014,about 22,545 persons were evacuated as a result of similar natural disasters in the country
This is a real problem in Cameroon ,yes they're rights are being protected but to what extent
From working on my project,i spent time with my family, cooked some rice 🍚,interacted amd attended a meeting with some friends and posted a one of my favourite pictures and retired for the day
What a great statistics and a very good point of attraction as well... Courage✊🏽
