On Friday, 19 September 2025, the university community converged on Restaurant No. 2 for a conference on the theme: “University Sport, a Vector for the Implementation of the University–Enterprise for a Prosperous Cameroon.”

 

The meeting was chaired by the Director of Students Affairs Office, Dr Socrate Ntyama, with the Head of DASA of the University of Yaounde I as moderator, and Euloge Noah as keynote speaker. The discussions were a real opportunity to raise awareness of the benefits of sport, not only for health and personal fulfilment, but also for the entire university community’s cohesion and visibility. Participants also focussed on the development of sport facilities as a university economy lever.

 

In his presentation, the Director of Students Affairs Office recalled “the fundamental values conveyed by sport, emphasizing its strategic role in the university–enterprise concept and the numerous opportunities it opens up for students and institution.”

 

The conference ended on a note of collective commitment, with the announcement of a major sport walk scheduled for Saturday, 20 September 2025, at 7.30 a.m., starting from the esplanade of the Rectorate.
