The Commission des Droits de l'homme du Cameroun (CDHC) is an official body responsible for monitoring and advocating for human rights within the country. Recently, it has drawn attention to the alarming impact of armed groups and terrorism on education in Cameroon, particularly in the regions of the Extreme-North, North-West, and South-West. The CDHC has reported a troubling 'economy of terror' surrounding schools, with significant ransom demands and frequent attacks on educational personnel. Its calls for greater protection of educational institutions align with international commitments, emphasizing the need for resilience and action to safeguard the right to education amidst ongoing violence.
