As part of the ´Fast Tracking the Universalization and the implementation of the ATT in Cameroon' project, funded by the Voluntary Trust Fund (VTF) of the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) the government of Cameroon and the Cameroon Youths and Students Forum for Peace (CAMYOSFOP) organized an inception seminar on 5 September 2017 bringing together the key stakeholders for an official launch of the project and to brainstorm on its implementation. The workshop, besides providing an overview of the project's objectives, also addressed the progresses already made by Cameroon on its pathway towards the ratification of the ATT and the benefits this would bring to the country.
