ocha-office-ndele-article.jpgAt the end of April, the United Nations opened its new base in Ndélé, the capital of the Bamingui-Bangoran prefecture in northern CAR. The base, which has been constructed by the Swedish Rescue Services Agency (SRSA) with funding from the Swedish government, will provide office space and accommodation for 6 people and will be open to all humanitarian and development organisations working in the area.
