Back to school is more than just the start of a new academic year , it is a renewal of our collective commitment to knowledge, responsibility, and civic values.

To students

➡️ Supporting a child’s education is supporting a stronger, fairer society. Every lesson learned contributes to building the Cameroon we all aspire to see.

As this school year begins, let us remember: education is not just personal growth it is nation-building.

The Head of State has just signed Decree No. 2025/412 convening the electoral colleges for the election of Regional Councillors on November 30, 2025.

This will be the second time Cameroon organizes Regional Council elections since their creation. According to the General Code of Regional and Local Authorities (2019), Regional Councils are tasked with:

Promoting the economic, social, health, educational, cultural, and sports development of their regions.

Acting as true agents of decentralization, bringing governance closer to citizens and ensuring local priorities shape national policy.

As the nation prepares for this second regional election, it is important to reflect on whether Regional Councils have lived up to these responsibilities and how decentralization can be strengthened to foster inclusive development and peace.

What’s your take? Have Regional Councils made a difference in your community?

As we begin this new month in an important election season, let us renew our commitment to peace, civic engagement, and responsible participation. Elections are not just about casting votes; they are about shaping the future of our communities and our nation.

This month, Politicos stands with you in promoting transparency, rejecting hate speech, and fostering dialogue. Together, we can ensure that the 2025 elections reflect the true will of the people—peaceful, inclusive, and democratic.

May this month be one of unity, awareness, and active citizenship.

28/08/2025

Amongst the list of 12 candidates contesting the 2025 presidential elections, Taimano Ndam Njoya of the Union Démocratique du Cameroun (UDC) stands out as the lone female candidate. This means women represent just 8.3% (1 out of 12) of the total candidates, while men account for 91.7% (11 out of 12).

Taimano Ndam Njoya brings notable political experience to the race. She served as a Member of Parliament from 2007 to 2020 and currently serves as the Mayor of Foumban. Her candidacy highlights both the progress made in advancing women’s political participation and the persistent gender imbalance in leadership.

As the elections approach, this raises a critical reflection: What continues to hinder women’s participation in politics, and what can be done to bridge the gap?

At Politicos – Policy Lab for Civic Innovation and Community Solutions, we believe that evidence is the foundation of effective solutions. This data on Cameroon’s presidential elections from 1992 to 2018 offers critical insights into voter behavior and democratic participation.

Our analysis shows:

Turnout volatility – from a peak of 82.23% in 2004 to a sharp decline to 53.85% in 2018.

Growing competition – candidates increased from 6 in 1992 to 23 in 2011, then fell to 9 in 2018.

More registered voters, lower participation – highlighting a gap between registration and actual voting.

Understanding these patterns allows us to design targeted civic education, mobilization strategies, and policy recommendations to strengthen voter turnout and ensure inclusive participation in the upcoming elections.

As a problem-solving think tank, our mission is clear: transform data into action, and action into lasting democratic progress.

Let’s use the lessons of the past to shape a more engaged, informed, and participatory future.
