ABOUT GAICAM

We are Go Africa Initiative for Community Action and Mobilization (GAICAM), a non-governmental, not-for-profit, and social transformative organization whose vision is to transform lives and promote growth in Cameroon and Africa at large.

Through this vision, we have reached and touched the lives of thousands of Cameroonians, and ultimately those of other nationalities, since our inception in the year 2013. Our tailored projects and programs have empowered thousands of young people and strengthened lots of vulnerable communities in Cameroon, fostering the creation of lots of small businesses, which has in turn created thousands of jobs, reduced unemployment, reduced community crime rates, and reduced other social ills in these communities.

We are working to end extreme poverty in Africa through capacity building, entrepreneurship, and innovation, helping communities develop the perfect recipe for sustainable success. We believe in the possibility of ending extreme poverty and building a sustainable future for all.

We work with youths from across Cameroon, promoting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and equipping them with the skills and resources needed to become resourceful to their communities and humanity.

We work with the most vulnerable women, refugees, internally displaced people, and youth in vulnerable communities in Africa, equipping them to adapt to the shocks of conflicts, hash economic situations, displacements, pandemics, and climate change. We are committed to building resilience and alleviating poverty by igniting entrepreneurial spirit in Cameroon and across Africa.
