Acerca de
We started as a Common Initiative Group (CIG) known as the Regional Center for Human Welfare and Agro-Development (RECEHWEDEV) with a mission of helping elderly persons, families and communities in need. The organization was upgraded as an association following the Law of 1990 in Cameroon and later upgraded as a Non-Governmental Organization named the Regional Center for the Welfare of Ageing Persons in Cameroon (RECEWAPEC) in 2001. Since then, we’ve been working on promoting and protecting the welfare of ageing persons in Cameroon through activities aimed at improving their living conditions and our advocacy role has been instrumental in streamlining government policies in favor of old age peoples throughout the national territory.
