Exploring Our Mission, Vision, and Commitment to Environmental Conservation and Sustainable Development in Cameroon
Founded in 2017, the Environment and Food Foundation (E2F) has dedicated the past years to bridging the gap between environmental conservation and human wellbeing. Our mission is to halt and reverse the alarming threats facing marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems by collaborating with indigenous and local communities (IPLC), youth, and women. Since our establishment in 2017, the Environment and Food Foundation (E2F) has emerged as a respected and dynamic organisation recognised for its transformative impact in Cameroon, Africa, and across the globe. Our collaborative approach and commitment to a sustainable future have paved the way for progress and positive change. At the Environment and Food Foundation (E2F), we envision a future where both people and nature flourish together, paving the way towards sustainable, low-carbon, and resilient development.
