The Cameroon Journal on Democracy and Human Rights (CJDHR) is a
bi-annual scholarly publication centered on Cameroon. CJDHR is a
journal of Progressive Initiative for Cameroon (PICAM) and is
registered with the
National Serials Data Program of the United States Library of Congress with
ISSN 1938-3584.
Currently,
the journal is only published online. The journal publishes articles
on Human Rights, Democracy, Peace Building, and Development. The main goal of the journal is to promote
research and scholarship among Cameroonians and non-Cameroonians
interested in issues pertinent to the establishment of a functional
and sustainable democracy in Cameroon. PICAM recognizes that as a new
journal there are several contextual limitations, but the end goal
is to ensure that the journal grows to the status of a full peer
reviewed publication.
The journal is freely accessible online without any
subscription. PICAM is also looking for means to begin producing
hard copies of the journal so that the journal can be made freely available
in schools, public libraries, and other educational and reading
centers in Cameroon and abroad. It is hoped that this journal will
become a major forum for information sharing and synthesizes on all
major issues relevant to a functional democracy in Cameroon. CJDHR
will serve as a resource for students and researchers in Cameroon
and around the world on issues pertinent to Cameroon. Through this
forum, Cameroonians will be able to have their work read and used by
a wider audience.
