Abstract:
This paper examines the rise of low-skilled, low-paying, female dominated jobs in Cameroons information and communication technology (ICT) sector. It seeks to understand why and how women (mostly between the ages of 18 and 35) seem to be naturally drawn to these jobs, described in the literature as pink-collar jobs. Through interviews with ICT workers and observations at ICT training centers and call centers in Buea, a major city in the Southwest Region of Cameroon, the paper explores the factors that hinder womens entry into more technical ICT jobs in Cameroon. It concludes that some of these factors, such as the prior income level of female ICT workers and the absence of female instructors at ICT training centers, further reinforce gender-based job classifications and the rise of ghettoization in Cameroons ICT sector.

Abstract:
Contexte : Au Cameroun, le niveau de la fécondité reste élevé bien qu’une tendance à la baisse soit observée au cours de ces dernières années. Le nombre moyen d’enfants par femme est passé de 5,1 enfants en 2011 à 4,8 en 2018 (INS, 2018). Objectif : Cet article cherche à identifier les sources de changement social du niveau de la fécondité à travers l’autonomie des femmes en union au Cameroun. Méthodologie : Les données proviennent des enquêtes démographiques et de santé réalisées au Cameroun en 2011 et 2018. Elles sont analysées par la méthode de décomposition pour identifier les sources de changement du niveau de fécondité en fonction de l’autonomie. Résultats : Les résultats de l’analyse montrent que, pour les trois variables de classification retenues, la baisse de la fécondité chez les femmes en union au Cameroun entre 2011 et 2018 est due principalement à un effet de comportement. Cet effet est plus important chez les femmes dont la prise de décision relève du conjoint. Les femmes de niveau d’instruction primaire ont contribué de manière très significative (226,2%) à cette baisse. Il en est de même, pour celles exerçant des travaux domestiques et des activités dans le secteur informel avec respectivement 226,7% et 165,6%. Conclusion : L’autonomie exerce une influence sur la baisse de la fécondité des femmes en union au Cameroun entre 2011 et 2018. Background: In Cameroon, the level of fertility remains high although a downward trend is observed in recent years. The average number of children per woman increased from 5.1 in 2011 to 4.8 in 2018 (INS, 2018). Objective: This article seeks to identify the sources of social change in the level of fertility through the autonomy of women in union in Cameroon. Methodology: The data come from demographic and health surveys conducted in Cameroon in 2011 and 2018. They are analyzed by the decomposition method to identify the sources of change in fertility level according to autonomy. Results: The results of the analysis show that, for the three classification variables used, the decrease in fertility among women in unions in Cameroon between 2011 and 2018 is mainly due to a behavioural effect. This effect is greater for women whose decision-making is the responsibility of the spouse. Women with primary education contributed significantly (226.2%) to this decline. The same is true for those engaged in domestic work and activities in the informal sector with 226.7% and 165.6% respectively. Conclusion: Autonomy exerts an influence on the decline in fertility of women in union in Cameroon between 2011 and 2018.

Abstract:
In all human communities, societal continuity depended on the quality and availability of infant and maternity welfare services. Conscious of the outcomes of infancy care on the productive efficiency of individuals at adulthood, the reproductive life of women and child welfare became an area of European domination during colonialism. Using British Southern/West Cameroon(s) as the theatre, this paper sets out to uncover colonial motives in the transformation of reproductive practices among women as it examines the different strategies and mechanisms employed in extending maternity and infant welfare as a measure of colonial imperialism. Archival information and oral interviews made up primary sources while books, published articles and dissertations constituted the secondary sources. The descriptive historical approach was employed in the analysis of the work. This paper submits that: the British colonial administration in Southern Cameroons had a mask colonial exploitative economic agenda behind the assignment put forth by the League of Nations Mandate Commission in its Article II of the British Mandate agreement. A baseless racial discrimination and cultural domination motivated the transformation of the reproductive life of indigenous women and the extension of basic infant welfare services during the Mandate and trusteeship periods in Southern Cameroons. These services were mostly provided by Western Mission agencies and plantation firms who recognized the independence of Southern Cameroons but withheld the rights to medical autonomy. In some cases, the transfer of rights to manage the medical arm of the different agencies was partially transferred during the last years of the Cameroon federation and in some cases after the abrogation of the Cameroon federation. The British decision to administer Southern Cameroons as a mandate was a conspiracy to enforce the tentacles of colonialism and its diverse arms with hope of greater economic and cultural gains.

Abstract:
This study examines the variations in household violence and maternal autonomy in rural and urban areas and their effect on child health in Cameroon. Using data from Cameron Demographic Health Survey (CDHS, 2018), a mixed-method approach (Ordinary Lease Square Regression and the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition method) was used for the analysis. The study found that household violence had an insignificant negative effect on child health while maternal autonomy exhibited a very significant positive effect on child health globally, in rural and in urban areas in Cameroon. Also, the rates of household violence and maternal autonomy are significantly higher in urban areas than in rural areas in Cameroon. Policy recommendations includes raising awareness, providing educational and economic opportunities for women, improving health care services and strengthening legal framework to combat violence while strengthening maternal autonomy through educational and economic initiatives which improves their own and child health in both rural and urban settings in Cameroon.

Abstract:
This article highlights the cultural and traditional practices that continue to discriminate against women in Cameroon, given that gender equality has been recognised and guaranteed in the Constitution of Cameroon and all international human rights instruments which Cameroon has ratified, notably the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and its Optional Protocol, the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, and all other international and regional conventions and covenants relating to discrimination against women. The article points out that the status of a woman under traditional law is far less than that of a slave. A woman is regarded as an abominable object and subjected to harmful customary practices. Some customs still continue to affect the physical and psychological development of the village woman. It is suggested that the village woman should be empowered financially, economically and socially to fight against customary practices that violate their rights.

Abstract:
This paper enunciates that women continues to experience rampant violations on their inheritance right to property in Cameroon. The continuous violations of women in Cameroon on their right to inherit property leave us with no doubts in ascertaining truly that the legal explanations protecting women in the country are questionable. In answering the above hypothesis, a doctrinal research method is used. From the established demonstration expounded, one can acclaimed that women right protection in Cameroon is distressing and a painful with the need of an acceptable correctable platform. The various law has to be re-examined and restructured if the objective of the law really should be obtained.

Abstract:
Mbororo Fulani women are experiencing transformation in their livelihood through livestock farming. This paper investigates the contributions of livestock farming to the wellbeing of the Mbororo Fulani women of the North West region of Cameroon. Mbororo women in the North West region play different roles to contribute to the growth of the livestock sector in Cameroon but lack technological knowledge and extension services to improve on their livestock activities. The study used primary data gotten through structured questionnaires and secondary data from journals, books and work from other researchers. The simple random sampling was used to select 400 Mbororo women for the study and SPSS was used for data analysis. The study reveals that 61% of Mbororo women are engage in livestock farming. 20.4% of the women keep different categories of livestock extension (sheep, goat, poultry etc). 89% of the women do livestock farming for income generation and as a means to increase proteins needs for their families. Therefore, livestock is an important source of revenue to Mbororo Fulani women in the North West region of Cameroon thus Cameroon government should put more efforts to assist these Mbororo women in livestock farming by providing them with modern innovations through extension services and resources needed to expand on livestock farming.

Abstract:
The media, specifically tabloids, have the potential to portray poverty-related issues in a manner that informs the public and government about the experiences of people living in poverty so that it can be tackled with urgency. Poverty has blighted the lives of many, especially women, children and widows in Cameroon. The role of the media in reporting the plight and suffering of the ‘masses’ potentially shapes the way in which these issues are handled by those in authority. The study notes that the tabloid press has the potential to expose certain experiences of ordinary people thereby constituting that alternative sphere for the disadvantaged. The study investigates the manner women are represented in The Post which is an English tabloid published in Cameroon. The representation of women in this study looks at the institutional policies which drive the representation of women in news constructs, analyses the news values which shape news production, and uses Thompson’s modes of ideology to unravel the underlying meanings in the reported stories. The study is inspired by the claims that since women make up the majority of the world's poor, so too would media representations depict them as such. It utilises thematic analysis to understand the manner in which women are represented in The Post. It also uses interviews with the regional bureau editor of the North West region to probe what news values and institutional policies drive the stories on women’s poverty. Document analysis is used to better comprehend the institutional guidelines which govern the representation of women during the month of March 2009.

Abstract:
Increased poverty and unemployment rates, minimal investment in social amenities, a shortage of healthcare professionals, poor infrastructure, inadequate social services, and poor institutional and political leadership have weakened the healthcare status of Cameroon's women who have reached the age of childbearing. The World Health Organization expressed increased urgency for healthcare providers and patients to develop new healthcare policies to eliminate health-related disparities. The aim of this phenomenological study was to examine the perceptions of women of childbearing age living in Mamfe rural community in regard to Cameroon's healthcare system and its impact on their lives. The theoretical foundation of the study was the healthcare utilization model. Interviews were conducted with 10 women participants, ages between 18 and 45. The data collected through semistructured interviews were analyzed using NVivo 11 and the Colaizzi 7-step processes to identify themes and subthemes. Study findings revealed systemic challenges that affected healthcare access which need to be adequately addressed to reduce maternal and child mortality among women of child-bearing age. The study findings could foster social change by improving the development of healthcare standards, as well as illustrating methods of increasing the level of access to healthcare services among women of childbearing age.

Abstract:
The southwest and northwest regions of Cameroon have experienced high rates of intimate partner violence (IPV). Limited information is available about IPV victims' experiences with social support systems. This phenomenological study was aimed at investigating IPV victims' lived experiences with social support systems in Cameroon. Some of these systems are the judicial system, police officers, hospitals and clinics, and domestic violence agencies. The Health Belief Model (HBM) and the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM) were used to understand how 8 self-identified victims of IPV were able to discuss their lived experiences with social support systems. The research questions addressed women's experiences with social support systems as victims of intimate partner violence. The study also addressed participants' willingness to use social support systems again if the systems were made available to them. Data were gathered through face-to-face interviews using a purposeful-criterion sample that discussed the themes developed after the interview. The participants were selected with the help of 2 local domestic violence organizations based in the northwest and southwest regions of Cameroon. Study findings, which were generated via inductive analyses, indicated that victims sought the help of social support systems at least 3 times in hopes of changing their situation but were not satisfied with these systems. The study conveys social change by encouraging the need to educate social support systems in implementing and developing culturally-sensitive programs to eradicate IPV in Cameroon.

Abstract:
Notre thèse porte sur le recours à l’avortement au Cameroun dans deux villes, Eséka et Maroua. Nous avons pour ambition de comprendre les sollicitations liées au recours à l’avortement en milieu urbain dans un contexte où existent des dispositions médicales et légales particulières. Une étude empirique a été réalisée dans les deux localités. De ce travail de terrain, nous avons observé qu’il existe pour les femmes au niveau médical, la possibilité d’une prise en charge des soins après un avortement, quelles que soient les conditions de sa réalisation. Au niveau légal, la décision d’avorter en dehors des conditions légales définies reste problématique pour les femmes et pour ceux qui recourent à l’avortement en dehors de ce cadre-là. Nous affirmons que les normes procréatives auxquelles les femmes sont confrontées au quotidien, surtout celles relatives à la grossesse en particulier, peuvent les amener à recourir à l’avortement, bien que cela soit fortement et légalement réglementé. L’approche du sujet associe à la fois la théorie sociologique de l'expérience, la démarche ethnographique du contexte (global et local) et l'étude des cas liés au recours à l'avortement. Partant de cette perspective, nous analysons le recours à l’avortement à partir des expériences et vécus individuels des femmes en matière de procréation et de la grossesse d’une part, ainsi qu’à partir des difficultés liées aux normes imposées par les institutions sociales comme la famille ou l’État d’autre part. Il s’agit surtout de montrer par cet exemple local, les difficultés de mise en œuvre des recommandations formulées à l’échelle internationale au niveau local dans le cas particulier de l’avortement
Our thesis is about the abortion in Cameroon in two cities Eséka and Maroua. We aim to understand the stresses related to abortion in urban areas in a context where there are specific medical and legal provisions. An empirical study was conducted in two locations. This fieldwork, we observed that there is for women at the medical level, the possibility of support for post-abortion care, regardless of the conditions of its realization. From a legal standpoint, the decision to have an abortion outside the defined legal requirements remains problematic for women and for those who resort to abortion outside this framework. We affirm that procreative norms that women face daily, in particular those related to pregnancy, can encourage them to resort to abortion, although this is highly regulated. The theoretical framework combines both sociological theory of experience, the ethnographic approach of the context (global and local) and the cases studies related to abortion. From this perspective, we analyze the abortion from the experiences and individual stories of women related to procreation and pregnancy in one hand, as well as from difficulties related to norms imposed by social institutions like the family or the State in the other hand. This is mostly to show through this specific experience, implementation challenges that come with the translation of recommendations made at the international level to the local level in the particular case of abortion

Magister Public Health - MPH (Public Health)
HIV-positive women may desire to have children, plan their family size or avoid becoming pregnant. The choice to use or not to use a contraceptive method depends on this desire which is influenced by their fertility intentions. Among HIV-positive women who are avoiding unintended pregnancy, the use of condoms on their own or with another contraceptive method also lessens the possibility of infecting uninfected partners in sero-discordant relationships and prevents possible vertical transmission to the infant. Barrier methods like the condom used alone or in combination with other methods provide HIV-positive women with protection against pregnancy and against the transmission of HIV. Several factors including their fertility intentions influence their uptake and use of these various methods. In urban health districts in Yaounde in Cameroon where the prevalence of HIV in women remains higher than the national average and with observed increasing rates of abortions within this population, very little information is available both about their fertility intentions and contraceptive use. An understanding of the fertility intentions of HIV-positive women and their uptake and use of dual protection is helpful in informing family planning activities for HIVpositive persons and possibly informing services to provide safer options for conception in HIV-positive women.

Abstract:
"Issues of gender have always, and continue to, inhibit women from access to public office. With the increase of gender mainstreaming and struggle for equality, the internntional community has become increasingly aware of the absence of women in politics. The aims of this dissertation is not only, however, to be conscious of women's absence in politics, but to also take steps to redefine sound strategies to implement gender equality in terms of the political participation of women on the part of governments. This dissertation will focus on the place accorded to South African women in relation to the consolidation of a fairly new democracy, compared and contrasted to the struggle of their Cameroonian counterparts within the context of a much older democracy. Moreover, ratified conventional instruments as well as domestic constitutional dispositions currently in force in Cameroon dictate gender equality, thus calling for the implementation of special measures to enhance the participation of women. Yet, there have been no serious efforts on the part of Cameroon to revise or abrogate numerous coexisting discriminatory provisions and practices that perpetrate systematic discrimination against women in various ways within existing institutions. ... Chapter one sets out the scope of the study through the identification of the research problem and outlines the chosen methodology. This chapter also states the aims and objectives of the paper as well as its limitations. Chapter two considers the international and regional provisions governing women's rights. The main aim of this chapter is to recoup dispositions in human rights instruments with specific reference to gender equality and the participation of women in public life. Chapter three gives a historical backdrop of the participation of women in politics in both countries and sets out the domestic and constitutional provisions that relate to the status of women in politics in both Cameroon and South Africa. It also contains case studies to elucidate the particular challenges faced by women in these two countries. Chapter four analyses the extent to which Cameroon and South Africa have complied with international, regional as well as national human rights standards pertaining to women's political participation rights. The final chapter will contain conclusions and recommendations." -- Introduction.

Abstract:
AbstractIt is a widely accepted notion that climate change affects men and women within agrarian populations differently; consequently, their adaptation strategies are gendered. Besides climate change, women’s vulnerability and their corresponding adaptation strategies are embedded within a complex web of social identities/status, agroecological location, gender norm/roles and power struggles within the plurality of normative orders governing land (property rights). This chapter focuses on Cameroon and seeks to analyze how the interactions between various normative orders governing access to land, co-dependent upon the multiple gendered identities (intersectionality), impact climate change adaptation strategies of female farmers. The results show that the degree of vulnerability and adaptation strategies of women are context specific and gendered across the five distinct agroecological zones of Cameroon. Furthermore, secured access to and ownership over land is crucial in determining the adaptation choices and options available to female farmers. A complex mix of state and non-state norms govern property rights in Cameroon, within which women have to constantly negotiate their land claims. These negotiations are influenced by marital status, ethnicity, educational level, and community/social relations, such that the outcome translates differently for women within the Muslim, Anglophone, and Francophone communities. The chapter concludes with context-specific recommendations to strengthen the adaptive capacity of agrarian women across Cameroon.

Abstract:
If one has not read local English novels like The Garden of Evening Mists and The Night Tiger, one would never be able to imagine the wonders of locales depicted in these two books. One of the reasons the authors here want to visit a said destination is because of the way a certain place is pictured in narratives. Tan Twan Eng brings to life the beauty of Japanese gardens in Cameron Highlands, in the backdrop of postWorld War II while Yangsze Choo takes us into several small towns of Kinta Valley in the state of Perak in her beautifully woven tale of the superstitions and beliefs of the local people in Chinese folklore and myth in war torn Malaysia in the 1930s and after. Many of the places mentioned in these two novels should be considered places to visit by tourists local and international. Although these Malaysian novelists live away from Malaysia, they are clearly ambassadors of the Malaysian cultural and regional heritage. In this paper, a few of the places in the novel will be looked at as potential spots for the coming decade. The research questions considered here are i) what can be done to make written narratives the new trend to pave the way for Visit Malaysia destinations? ii) how could these narratives be promoted as guides to the history and culture of Malaysia? The significant destinations and the relevant cultural history of the regions will be discussed in-depth to come to a relevant conclusion.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of a study of corporate culture preferences depending on self-regulation and values of specialists working in project organizations for the development of complex technical systems (STS). As the methodological basis of the research, we selected R. Barrett’s concept of the levels of personal and organizational consciousness, the compatibility of personal and organizational values as factors that determine the development and effectiveness of companies in the modern business space (Barret, 1997). The purpose of the study: to determine the dependence of the preferred corporate culture of scientific and production associations by specialists of complex technical systems (STS) on their value orientations and self-regulation styles. Research methods: diagnostics of types of real and preferred corporate culture (Cameron, 2001), questionnaire «style of self-regulation of behavior» (Morosanova, 1988), author’s questionnaire of values based on the R. Barrett model (personal and corporate values), questionnaire «life goals and values» (Klyueva, 1997). Sample: 96 specialists of the STS Research and production Association (56 men and 40 women aged 28 to 55 years, with experience in the organization from 2 to 15 years. Conclusions. STS specialists assess the real corporate culture as bureaucratic and market-oriented. They want a clannish corporate culture or an adhocracy one. With a high level of self-regulation, professionals prefer clan and adhocracy cultures. STS specialists with a low level of self-regulation prefer a bureaucratic corporate culture. STS specialists have the predominant values of life, health and personal growth, and religion and fame are the least Their corporate values belong to the third level of consciousness (self-esteem, self-discipline, confidence, friendliness, influence and power, the effectiveness of the organization in business processes and management system). STS specialists have a high level of self-regulation with a predominance of styles for evaluating results, programming and modeling. Styles of self-regulation of planning, programming, and regulatory-personal properties of flexibility have a medium level, and independence-a low level, which is a consequence of the bureaucratic corporate culture. The obtained results served as a justification for the development of an algorithm for changing the corporate culture of an organization.

Abstract:
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have important implications for pregnancy outcomes and the subsequent health of women and their children. The aim of this study is to determine the status of NCD and maternal health program integration, identify barriers to integration, and explore what would be required to deepen integration of NCD care into antenatal care in Cameroon. We used two methods of data collection and synthesis: a desk review of policy documents and protocols and a series of key informant interviews with health system experts and managers working in public, private, and faith-based health facilities at central, regional, and district levels. Although screening for blood glucose and blood pressure occurs during antenatal care, post-diagnosis management is not well-integrated and often requires referral to specialists in higher-level health facilities. Key barriers to integration include lack of guidelines for the management of NCDs, financial constraints for facilities and patients, and shortages of health workers, medications, and supplies for laboratory investigations. Further integration of services for NCDs during pregnancy will require national guidelines backed up by system-wide strengthening of health information systems, insurance coverage, supply chain management, and human resource capacity, particularly in remote areas.
