Why Central African Republic? We have been operational in the Central African Republic (CAR) since March 2014. The overall goals of our programme in CAR are to provide humanitarian assistance, build the resilience of communities and to alleviate the suffering of conflict-affected communities.
The 'hungriest country' in the world
In the 2018 Global Hunger Index (GHI), CAR was the one country with hunger levels classified as 'extremely alarming'. Recent conflict has severely affected the livelihoods and living conditions of over half of the 4.6 million population.
Conflict has forced over one million people from their homes in CAR, with almost half of those fleeing to neighbouring countries. The number of people in need has increased by 13% since March 2018, primarily driven by ongoing conflict affecting households’ livelihoods and access to food.
The country also has one of the world's highest rates of child mortality.

I have feelings of pain, because I have lost all that I had. The standard of living is very hard here… In my home village, I lived on the fruits of my cattle and my field. Here, I cannot make ends meet.
