Cameroun-Projet Backup Santé : Rapport final
Le Ministère de la Santé a réalisé en 2020, une étude pour évaluer les politiques relatives au genre dans la santé du Cameroun, en collaboration avec le P4H et la GIZ. L’objectif de l‟étude était d‟analyser la transformation sociale favorable aux femmes à travers le processus de budgétisation en utilisant la méthodologie à l‟aide de l‟outil « Equity Budgeting Tool ».Selon les résultats de cette étude, des discriminations de genre persistent dans le secteur de la santé, même si des efforts sont déployés pour les réduire. Les inégalités sont visibles au niveau de l‟accessibilité à certains soins de santé pour les femmes et dans certains groupes spécifiques en milieu rural où se pose avec acuité la question de disponibilité des médicaments et structures de santé. Ainsi, la persistance de ces inégalités contredit les discours politiques et les stratégies nationales qui énoncent l‟élimination des inégalités liées au genre.
C‟est dans ce contexte que le Projet BACKUP SANTE de la GIZ, a commandité la présente étude qui se situe dans la continuité des initiatives antérieures mises en œuvre, afin de mieux comprendre les enjeux genre dans le financement de la santé, afin d‟atteindre les objectifs de la Couverture Santé Universelle.
