There are still significant social, cultural and economic development gains to be made in ensuring women's equitable access to and control over resources. The impact of inequality in access to resources represents a global challenge with implications for individual, family, community and national level. This paper examines women's access to resources in a broad sense, including legislations, human rights and freedoms, economic empowerment, trade, social protection, basic needs, economic resources generated at the national level through budgets, trade, and development assistance; jobs and employment, landed property and other productive resources; and education. The United Nations and its agencies have demonstrated leadership in identifying and systematically and effectively addressing discrimination against women in relation to access and control of resources. There are lots of solutions campaigns in Cameroon on women limited access to resources and education, violations of women's rights, persistent discriminatory legislation; violence against women, including harmful traditional practices such as early and forced marriage, female genital mutilation; public and political life, leadership and health services.

This paper is a critical analysis of gender inequality and impediments to women's economic participation for sustainable development in Africa with Cameroon as a point of focus. It was informed by a review of the literature on women and gender alongside focused group discussions and available primary data. The issue of gender inequality must be purposely checked if the pursuit of a more sustained development approach in today's world is to be accomplished. In this regard, gender equality and women's participation in every sphere of life are indispensable for the furtherance of sustainable development. The key questions that inform this policy paper are: Is gender inequality an impediment against sustainable development in Africa? What are the impediments against women's economic participation for sustainable development? What is the state of Cameroonian women in the sustainable development process? Is there any National Gender Policy in Cameroon, if so, what are the key dimensions and alternative policies for sustainable development? Which international policy arrangements exist, and so far, have they been instrumental for sustainable development? What are the challenges for policy implementation and lastly, what are the policy implications for gender policy and practice? The underlying assumption of this paper is that for gender inequality and precisely women's economic participation to thrive and contribute to sustainable development in Africa, governments and relevant stakeholders must shift from the approach of mere Women in Development (WID) to that of Gender and Development (GAD).

Cameroon's suboptimal economic experience since independence (1960) sheds light on broader issues of Africa's development narrative, and provides valuable economic and policy knowledge. While Cameroon's large informal economy is diverse and resilient and rooted in old business traditions, its formal economy has exhibited low productivity and employment growth for over 60 years. This has brought anger, disappointment, and violent conflict in several regions of the country. The Oxford Handbook of the Economy of Cameroon examines the reasons of Cameroon's unsatisfactory economic performance and draws lessons from successful development experience to help tackle these issues. The Handbook provides a critical assessment of the history, patterns, and strategies of economic development in Cameroon, and outlines new approaches to economic enquiry for prosperity and social change. Through Cameroon's governance story, the handbook analyzes the evolving conceptions of economic policy, takes stock of intellectual progress, documents the challenges of implementation, and outlines the intellectual and policy agenda ahead. For a developing country increases in per capita income arise from advances in technology arise from closing the knowledge and technology gap with those at the frontier. And within any country (especially one like Cameroon), there is enormous scope for productivity improvement simply by closing the gap between best practices and average practices. Standards of living can therefore be improved through the implementation of pertinent learning strategies. In this Oxford Handbook of the Economy of Cameroon, an international team of leading development economists and researchers address the wide range of issues facing Cameroon and provide guiding principles on how best the country (and other developing nations) could move human, capital, and financial resources from low- to high-productivity sectors in a constantly changing global economy.

The Mbos are a large ethnic group in present day Cameroon and were an important and powerful group until the Anglo-French partition. Following the defeat of the colonial power, Germany, in the First World War, the League of Nations in a March 1916 Mandate, partitioned the territory into two unequal halves among the victorious imperial powers of England and France, to be governed in trust as from 1922. As a result of the partition, the Mbos, who happened to find themselves right along the lines of division, were thrust under French and English administrations. Roughly two thirds of the Mbos found themselves in what had then become French (East) Cameroon, while the remaining one third was placed under British (West) Cameroon rule. Today the Mbos, as a whole, occupy parts of the Littoral and Western (Francophone) and Southwest (Anglophone) regions of Cameroon. While the Francophone Mbos have, over the decades, benefited from all aspects of economic, social, political, and agricultural development, the Anglophone Mbos have been isolated and deprived of all the outward and physical - tangible - aspects of socio-economic and political progress. The persistence of such colonial divisions makes for inequality among the Mbos, despite their common ancestry, ethnicity and cultural heritage. This book seeks to update diverse aspects of the study conducted on the British Mbos by J.W.C. Rutherford and others as a first step toward a comprehensive publication on the Anglophone Mbos.

Cameroon (officially regarded as the Republic of Cameroon) is a country with vast natural resources and a population of 22.8 million people. It is also culturally and geographically very diverse. Due to its geographical and cultural diversity, Cameroon is often referred to as Africa in miniature. This country is currently considered as a lower middle-income country by the World Bank through social indicators and levels of poverty, which are below those for comparing countries. However, the Government of Cameroon aims to achieve a state of higher middle-income by 2035. There exists a huge potential for economic growth and poverty reduction in Cameroon. Indeed, over the last decade, the country has been characterized by a positive economic growth, spurred by large public investments in infrastructure. However, to attain the higher middle-income status by 2035, growth needs to accelerate further. As the public sector alone cannot bring this about, much more private investments are necessary. Doing so also requires improvements in the business environment. However, despite more than a decade of economic growth, national poverty has remained almost unchanged. While Cameroon is urbanizing rapidly, poverty remains a rural phenomenon and is increasingly concentrated in northern Cameroon. The aim of the book is to provide an overview of the main issues, challenges, and prospects faced by Cameroon. The book is composed of conceptual and empirical studies of Cameroonian scholars gathered together in order to provide descriptions and explanations of the main issues as well as policy recommendations to support decisions-makers. These considerations are those of Cameroonians for Cameroon. The book is organized into two volumes. The first one, entitled Governance and Businesses, is devoted to issues relating to public governance, investment climate, insecurity, globalization, business development, and activities that are sources of employment in Cameroon. The second volume, entitled Environment and People, deals with issues concerning the management of cross cutting economic services, the conservation of forests, the sustainable development of agricultural activities, the role of women, the immobility of workers, problems of development and poverty alleviation, millennium development goals, the performance of microfinance institutions, multilingualism, and education in Cameroon.
