About us
The Southwest Civil Society Organizations Network (SWECSON) is a collaborative network dedicated to fostering sustainable development in the Southwest Region of Cameroon.
SWECSON was founded in 2003 by a group of visionary civil society leaders who recognized the need for a unified network to address the pressing challenges facing the Southwest Region. Since its inception, SWECSON has grown to include over 150 member organizations, each bringing unique expertise and experience to the table. Together, we have successfully implemented numerous projects, advocated for policy changes, and empowered countless communities.
