Cameroon is currently facing a complex humanitarian crisis, with ongoing violence and conflict in the Anglophone regions. The crisis resulted in thousands of deaths, widespread displacement, and a severe humanitarian need for food, shelter, and healthcare. The conflict has also led to numerous breaches of human rights such as extrajudicial execution, arbitrary detentions, and the targeting of civilians by both state and non-state actors. In this context, evaluation of humanitarian assistance is essential as it addresses the cries of the affected population by highlighting the role of various organizations, which are pivotal in realizing humanitarian aid. Humanitarian organizations and aid agencies play important roles in providing life-saving assistance to those impaired by the conflict.

However, the effectiveness and impact of humanitarian aid should be carefully unmasked to see how they have been able to provide the needs of the impacted community while abiding by international humanitarian law and human rights standards despite various hindrances security threats, bureaucratic hurdles, poor transportation, funding, which impedes the interventions of humanitarians. This article evaluates actors actively responsible for humanitarian intervention alongside human rights as an integral of humanitarian aid focusing on how effective they have been and the challenges aid organizations face in accessing the affected areas.
