Wandusoa Organic Cameroon Development Association.
Organization Details
Wandusoa Organic Cameroon Development Association empowers smallholder farmers through regenerative agriculture, transforming degraded lands into thriving ecosystems while boosting rural livelihoods. By training farmers in chemical-free techniques—including agroforestry, water conservation, and indigenous crop cultivation—we've revitalised over 50 hectares, planted more than 14,000 trees, and enabled 80% of trainees to launch sustainable agribusinesses. Our model tackles food insecurity and climate resilience holistically, linking farmers to fair markets, tracking SDG-aligned impact (SDGs 2, 8, 13, 15), and amplifying women-led enterprises. We're proving that ecological restoration and economic justice grow hand-in-hand.
Impact Story
What We Do:
Wandusoa Organic Cameroon Development Association transforms degraded farmland into thriving ecosystems, empowering marginalised farmers—particularly women—to build sustainable livelihoods. Through hands-on training in regenerative agriculture (agroforestry, organic pest control, water conservation), we equip smallholders with the tools to revive exhausted soils, grow climate-resilient crops, and launch agribusinesses. Our model connects farmers to fair markets, tracks impact through SDG-aligned metrics (SDGs 2, 8, 13, and 15), and amplifies indigenous knowledge, demonstrating that ecological healing and economic justice are inextricably linked.
Impact Story:
When Esther Obase joined Wandusoa, her half-acre plot in Cameroon’s drought-prone Southwest Region could barely feed her family. After training in water-saving techniques and organic farming, she now cultivates 2.5 acres of chemical-free indigenous greens, employing three workers and supplying restaurants in three cities. Esther’s success mirrors our broader impact: 520+ farmers trained, 50+ hectares restored, and 14,000+ trees planted. By prioritising women like Esther (70% of trainees), we’re shifting narratives—from subsistence survival to regenerative entrepreneurship. Every revitalised farm becomes a hub for food security, biodiversity, and community resilience, proving that when the land thrives, people thrive too.
