Impact of Landslides on Communities in Cameroon

Communities in Cameroon have been threatened by natural disasters. One of the more common is landslides that pose a significant and multifaceted threat to the lives on the local inhabitants. Substantial socio-economic and environmental consequences have been cause by this phenomenon. With the advent of climate change, the frequency of this hazard are increasing significantly. The Recent Dschang Hill-side in November 2024, that cause tense of lives loss has call for concern on road users, and local farmer working along hillslopes. EEGA has as a mission to sensitize the local communities on safety measures to take during landslide prone seasons (the wet or rainy seasons) Statistics show that landslides in Cameroon are frequently triggered by heavy rainfall, a characteristic of the region's humid, tropical climate. Seismic triggered landslides are uncommon in the country but may be enhanced by highly saturated soils along cliffs and hill slope. Several research projects have been conducted to evaluate the causes of this frequent natural hazard and yet the level of sensitization of the local population with information on how to mitigate and manage the occurrence of this event is very low. This explains the reason why so many people keep falling victim of this hazard in the national territory. Thus a lot need to be done to create awareness and prepare the local population on how to mitigate and manage this phenomenon in the future.
