Who we are

A grassroots movement for dignity, resilience and opportunity.

"Bringing communities together and empowering them — raising the underprivileged from grass to grace."

Community Empowerment Network Centre Cameroon (CENC-Cam) is a legally registered, non-profit, non-governmental, apolitical volunteer charity founded in 2009 and legalised in September 2010. From our headquarters in Bamenda I Sub Division, we deliver integrated development programs that tackle poverty, food insecurity, gender inequality and climate vulnerability.

We design solutions with communities — participatory, locally owned, and built to last well beyond any single project cycle.
