Distribution of Language Material
In 2021, APRIL signed a memorandum of understanding with the Cameroon Association for Bible Translation and Literacy for the distribution of Bibles and Bible portions in several Cameroon languages. The has been a rise in the demand for Bibles in Cameroonian languages since APRIL started this systematic distribution plan.
Future Projects
APRIL is looking for like-minded individuals and organizations to partner with them in the production of Bibles in print oral and digital format. They also want to help in the design and translation of development literature that will foster the holistic development of Cameroon’s language communities.
