Is Ending Hunger and Achieving Food Security in Cameroon Possible by 2030?

Cameroon intends to terminate hunger, achieve food security and strive for better nutrition by 2030. The aim of this article is to critically examine the possibility of the government of Cameroon to achieve this vision by 2030. It is informed by three objectives. First, it looks at the current challenges faced by the government of Cameroon in accomplishing her mission. Second, it assesses whether the current atmosphere of insecurity can be a hindrance to the government's plan in effecting this task. Third, it suggests some evidence-informed policies that can better speed up the government's plan towards realizing the task. The study was informed by a severe review of literature. It also gathered data from primary online sources and reports from some relevant organizations. After a thorough review of these sources, we settle down with the conclusion that the government of Cameroon's intention to terminate hunger and achieve food security by 2030 cannot be fully realized without first addressing the current insecurity challenges plaguing the Far North, the East, and the two Anglophone regions, and that part of the remedy is to ensure that peace and justice is reinstated in the country. We also arrived at some recommendations which can be of tremendous help to the government. One such proposition is that the government of Cameroon need to change her economic structure by revolutionizing the agricultural sector from primary to secondary, which if properly followed up can bring about a more advanced industrial sector. An advanced agro-industrial sector will catalyse the transformation process and impact on production levels thus leading to a more positive end towards the realization of ending hunger and attaining food security by 2030.
