PEACE OF ART
As a result of the Anglophone crisis which started in 2016 in the the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon, schools, villages and economic infrastructures have been destroyed and others burned down by both separatist fighters and government militias. This situation has led to rising levels of school drops outs, internally displaced, homeless and vulnerable youths. Drug use, abuse, crime and poverty characterizes most youths in almost all the communities in the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon. ” Peace of Art” is a flagship project initiated by Collective Arts Development Association(CADA) in 2022 to use arts and social entrepreneurship skill development as a means of transformation and alternatives to drug use, abuse, crime and poverty among disadvantaged youths in crisis affected communities in the Northwest region of Cameroon.
