Fondation Machi defends the fundamental rights of women and restores the dignity of survivors of violence. Its response is comprehensive: safe shelter, care, access to legal rights, training and a return to economic independence.
The ambition is national: to become a leading centre in Cameroon for ending violence against women and children, through prevention, shelter, support and help towards independence.
