To attenuate conflict in Cameroon’s historically Anglophone regions through reforming the practice of government between the central State and its constituent sub-national Regions.
This Project seeks to draw on the best available knowledge and practice to inform policies on how to accommodate Cameroon’s diverse heritages, including in official languages, educational systems, and legal practice traditions. The project has been developed in response to challenges the country has faced in recent years.
Lodged under the emblem of the large African Baobab tree, the Project places faith in the peaceful expression and debate of divergent views on critical problems affecting the national body politic, with all opinions protected under the bounteous shade of the Palaver Tree, a problem-solving venue. Constitutional Options, in this light, are tools to entrench and anchor the emerging consensus into the management of public affairs.
