Central African Republic
The current humanitarian situation in the Central African Republic (CAR) is dire, as a result of years of armed conflict, weak state infrastructure, and a chronic absence of public services.

Current situation
The Central African population suffers daily violence and widespread human rights violations including torture, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV), extrajudicial executions, forced disappearances, illegal taxation, arbitrary arrest, and forced recruitment into armed groups.

Why we are there
DRC currently works with displacement- and conflict-affected returnee populations and host communities in the northwestern provinces of Ouham and Ouham-Pendé, along the borders with Cameroon and Chad. Here, DRC works to strengthen protection capacities, multisectoral emergency responses in Shelter and Settlement, WASH, mobile protection response and the development of durable solutions to displacement challenges.
DRC supports economic recovery and Gender Based Violence programming in Bangui, where there is a large population of returnees and IDPs living in extremely precarious conditions, along with at-risk youth who are faced with significant protection and livelihood concerns.
What we do
Protection, Shelter and Settlement, WASH, Economic Recovery and Peacebuilding.
