The present paper aims at investigating the status of the economic
development in Cameroon and female inclusion problems with the use of
annual data on Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and assets of household
survey between 2007-2011 and 2012-2016 from National Institute of
Statistic of Cameroon and, the different education statistical data available
on UNESCO and World Development Indicator of 2016. Our investigation
particularly aims to uncover the level of women inclusion in Cameroon
while putting a special focus on education. The paper finds that due to
a global amelioration in female inclusion effort, Cameroon has also
improved its condition. It can be concluded that growth in Cameroon has
not been as inclusive because as growth advanced equity did not. Hence,
despite positive developments, women inclusion still faces many problems
in Cameroon which can be confirmed by their very low representation in
important function of the country. In addition, the number of girls having
a chance for proper education is low in Cameroon. Furthermore, we move
forward in education and we observe that lesser percentages of females
are presented in each category of education: pre-primary, primary and
secondary.
