Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to come up with a critical analysis of the impact of presidential decree no 2020/11 of the 02nd March 2020 dedicated to the establishment of NASLA (National School on Local Administration) on the training of local public administration staff in Cameroon. This is done through a specific focus on the improvements of local public administration staff training as carried out by this decree whose main target aims at addressing the new challenges pouring over Cameroon’s politics as far as the form of the state is concerned. As Cameroon strong central state pattern seems for ever to give up under irreversible and sounding growing calls for federalism or decentralization patterns, Cameroon’s authorities during the two last decades have been forced to look for a specific school devoted to the forthcoming necessary bulkier local administration staff this revolution is calling for. Therefore, based on a diachronic paradigm which insists on the historical and feverish political background prior to the advent of NASLA, this article depicts the various and concrete improvements, in terms of university requirement, local councils needs and so on, carried out by decree no 2020/11 of the 02nd March 2020 dedicated to the establishment of NASLA (National School of Local Administration) before addressing the issue of the interactions between NASLA future curricula and the Cameroon multicultural diversity as well as the necessity of a peculiar local public administration theory.
