Central African Republic
One in every five Central African remains displaced either within the country or abroad, mainly in neighbouring countries, due to insecurity because of the ongoing conflict.
While there has been a slight dip in clashes, conflict continues to be the major driver of insecurity with recurrent attacks on civilians. New displacements have been recorded, as have violations of human rights and international humanitarian law by parties to the conflict especially in the southeast and west of the country. Conflicts in Sudan and instability in southern Chad exacerbated people’s vulnerabilities in the northeast and northwest regions.
Forty-six per cent of the population or 2.8 million people will be extremely vulnerable in 2024, to the extent that humanitarian assistance alone will not be sufficient for their well-being.
The number of people in need of assistance has dropped from 3.4 million in 2023 not only because of an improvement in the context, but also due to a refinement of needs analysis.
The humanitarian community aims to provide assistance to 1.9 million of the most vulnerable Central Africans for which it needs US $367.7 million.
The response aims to not only provide urgent lifesaving but promote durable solutions to displacement. The response strategy also includes accountability to affected people to ensure humanitarian response meets their expectations.
