Domestic violence in Cameroon

     In Cameroon, the women are always considered as inferior. She has a second role, she can not take high position in the society, she can have only domestic occupation. Domestic occupation means the widespread violence. The husband has the "right" to chastise his wife and he wife cannot oppose any resistance because she "deserves" the punishment.
    But, the Cameroon has signed international convention defending women rights. That is why, recently, he receive some recommendation by the United Nation.
Fortunately, there are also some NGO defending women right. These NGO are working despite the fact that they have not basic training and knowledge of women's issues and international human rights documents beyond the Universale Declaration of Humen Rights.
