CRS' History in Equatorial Guinea
Equatorial Guinea has recently seen an explosion in its natural resources sector, especially its oil industry. At 34%, the country currently has a rapidly growing economy. However, the majority of its citizens continue to live in severe poverty. In response, CRS focuses on meeting basic human needs and alleviating suffering.
CRS' work in Equatorial Guinea is managed by the CRS Cameroon office in Yaounde, Cameroon.
