On this page, you can download our report “Cameroon: The Anglophone Crisis”, published by Asylos in October 2025, in response to a query from an asylum professional, and responding to the research questions submitted to us. It examines the Anglophone crisis in the country, including separatist attacks on civilians, civil servants, educational institutions, and francophone communities. Covering sources published between 2019-2025 including the UN, NGOs, and media outlets.

This report is part of an initiative to make a selection of our research available publicly. In making this report widely accessible, we hope that the research can contribute to fair and evidence-based decision-making.

This Country of Origin Information (COI) report is intended as background reference material for legal representatives and those assisting asylum seekers. The COI report should be used as a tool to help identify relevant COI. It is imperative that legal representatives and those assisting asylum seekers read the whole COI report and consider whether, having done so, the report is, on balance, likely to support the specific case in which it is proposed to rely upon it. Please also note that it may be appropriate for legal representatives to seek additional individualised information.
