Keywords:
Decentralization, Community Health, Health, Sub-divisionAbstract
Following the issue given by World Health Organisation (WHO), Cameroon is committed since 1970 like many other southern Sahara African countries in the process of permanent health in its system which was involved in a critical phase at the beginning of 1980, a period troubled by economic crisis. In other to reach the goal “Santé pour Tous à l’an 2000”, Cameroon choosed to make its basic health, an essential strategy according to the Alma-Ata 1978 conference's resolutions. The real economic crisis which slows down the economic indicators and made Cameroon the poorest African country between 1985 and 1993, appears like the reason why new strategies research were encouraged in every domain, state attributions were transferred to territorial collectivities and public institutions in other to enable them to have their own judicial power and financial autonomy. This article analyses the impact of that decentralization in the public health domain which needs a great implication of the MbangFulbé community to the amelioration of its health.
