Cameroon
Towards
the end of the nineties, the country was still
experiencing a severe economic crisis that has
consequently caused an immense decrease in the
education budget. However, over the last few
years, Cameroon’s economy has started
to pick up again and gender equality in school
seems to be gradually improving, due in large
to an ever increasing socio-economic elite who
have the means to send all their children to
school, regardless of sex.
