Cameroon Agenda for Sustainable Development (CASD) is a civil society organization that works with policymakers and grassroots communities to address the health and socio-economic issues affecting the lives of adolescent girls, vulnerable women, and children using strategies that are inclusive, sustainable, and accountable. Since 2011, CASD has largely focused its activities on maternal and newborn health, adolescent guidance, and environmental protection.

  Mindful of the high risk of mortality and morbidity among pregnant girl, women, and newborns CASD currently implements three grassroots projects: the Expanded Access to Ultrasound during Pregnancy Project (improving access to Antenatal ultrasonography in rural communities), the Paternity Clinic (engaging expectant fathers in the continuum of care for healthy birthing), and the Girls’ Choice Ice-cream Project (enhancing universal access to sexual and reproductive health for adolescent girls). These projects have granted access to quality health services and respectful care to over 70,000 women and girls in Cameroon.

On the environmental front, CASD continues to sensitize the local populations on climate change, promoting reforestation and sustainable land management practices.
