Cameroon Systematic Country Diagnostic Consultations
The World Bank Group is preparing a Country Partnership Strategy to guide its support to Cameroon's development. We would like to hear your views on Cameroon's future and the role the World Bank Group can play in helping the country achieve its economic goals.
