The graduation ceremony of the first set of Catholic Women Religious (CWR) in Cameroon under the auspices of the African Sisters Education Collaborative (ASEC) took place on Friday 21st January, 2022 at the Pastoral Center in Bamenda, North West Region of Cameroon. This graduation ceremony comes after an intensive one month capacity building carried out by the Pan African Institute for Development – Regional Institute for West Africa (PAID-WA) Buea, from the 1st to 28th August 2021 which brought together over eight (28) participants who were consecrated members of the CWR.

PAID-WA being one of the training partners was invited for this special occasion amongst other dignitaries. The ceremony began with a Mass officiated by the Arch Bishop of Bamenda, His Grace, Arch Bishop Nkea Andrew. There was presentation of speeches from the different graduating batches of Administration Track and Finance Track programs. This was followed by the award of certificates to the participants/graduands. The training as well as the graduation ceremony was a huge success. It is however recommended that, participants be regularly followed-up through their respective congregations in order to track the effectiveness of the training.
