ACODEB (formerly "Association Communautaire pour le Développement et le Bien-Être") was officially renamed in 2025 to Actions Communautaires pour le Développement et le Bien-Être. Founded in Cameroon, it is a civil-society organisation working at the intersection of sustainable agriculture, environmental restoration and community well-being, with headquarters in Bafoussam and field offices in Maroua and Yaoundé.
