Contexto | The humanitarian context in the Central African Republic (CAR) improved in 2023 compared to the past five years, particularly in the southwest and major cities. However, persistent challenges remain, including insecurity, displacement from Sudan and Chad, climate change, and economic impacts of wars in Ukraine and Palestine. Despite some stability, the living conditions of thousands of vulnerable individuals, including women, children, and the elderly, continue to be affected. 70% of the population living below $2.15 per day, which makes CAR one of the 10 poorest countries in the world. For effective humanitarian action, planning must extend beyond immediate needs to integrate resilience and support the humanitarian-development-peace nexus by government’s coordination efforts and financial support from partners. |
Objetivos |
The Humanitarian Fund CAR was established in 2008 as an expansion of the Emergency Response Fund.

The HF-CAR makes it possible to support the HRP and to provide, through humanitarian organizations, an effective and efficient response to the priority needs of the populations affected by multiple crises and upheavals of conflict and violence in the CAR. It promotes a cooperative and coordinated approach between sectors and humanitarian organizations. It ensures holistic geographical and programmatic coverage of needs and strengthens the strategic impact of the HRP in the medium term. In fact, it tends towards the resilience of the beneficiaries, and is part of a dynamic of nexus humanitarian-development-peace in the long term. |
