Our Story
Our Beginning: A Vision for Change
In 2009, ADAS was founded as a Civil Society Organization with a clear purpose: to promote community development, facilitate access to education, and open international opportunities for young people in Cameroon and neighboring countries. What started as a small initiative has grown into a transformative force, driven by a commitment to sustainability and empowerment.
Our Journey: Growing Through Partnerships
From our headquarters in Yaoundé and a program office in Bamenda, we have built lasting partnerships with global and local organizations, including the British Council, UNICEF, UK FCDO, IDS Brighton, the Coca-Cola Foundation, and regional councils. These collaborations have enabled us to create meaningful, lasting change across communities in Central Africa.
