RESILAC works in the Far North Region, the most populated and poorest region of the country, and more precisely in four communes (Dargala, Koza, Mindif and Mora). While Cameroon has been a stable country for several decades, in recent years the Far North has been confronted with attacks by armed groups that amplify pre-existing problems of chronic malnutrition and food insecurity and lead to increasing population movements. Since September 2017, this situation has resulted in more than 500,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) and an inflation rate of 30 to 60% on certain foodstuffs.

Data collected by RESILAC indicates that there are a large number of individuals in psychological distress, particularly women, a phenomenon strongly linked to socio-economic conditions. There are no centers dedicated to psychosocial support in the four intervention communes.
