In Cameroon, a revision of the Minimum Expenditure Basket and related values was initiated in November 2024. This effort involved the World Food Programme and the national Cash Working Group. The revision aimed to update estimates for crisis areas, including the Lake Chad Basin and regions affected by the Central African Republic crisis.
The process used a hybrid approach, combining household expenditure data with a rights-based method. This built on a previous update from December 2022. The outcome of this revision is available in a quarterly bulletin.
Further details on the revised Minimum Expenditure Basket and its implications can be found in the relevant quarterly bulletin, which provides more information on the updates and changes made.
