Scandal of Health in Cameroon
Preventable deaths are reported daily in Cameroon because of corruption.
Too often, desperate patients are required to pay bribes they can ill afford to get basic health services that are supposed to be free. This even includes results of medical tests on themselves.
IGI Cameroon launched its anti-corruption programme in the health service last year, including workshops and the pilot of a new app for mobile phones. The app allows the public to report cases of corruption for investigation. This project should lead to real measurable improvements in integrity and health.
We now need more funding to roll out the app widely.
