On the occasion of the 12th anniversary of CDEO, the Board of Directors wishes to thank all CDEO partners both at home and abroad for past and present financial and material support. The Board calls on Cameroonians at home and in the diaspora, national and international charitable organisations, for better support of CDEO programmes. The CDEO seeks to intensify its networking with national and international organisations in the following areas: fundraising, the search for both deaf and hearing qualified volunteer teachers, the introduction of special education in Cameroon, as well as in the search for volunteer researchers for Cameroon Sign Language surveys.
