An updated presentation of the general humanitarian and development situation in CAR is now available. UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator Toby Lanzer presented this briefing to donors and other partners in Europe earlier this month, including at an OECD/DAC seminar, during EC consultations in Brussels and with Dutch officials in the Hague. The updated version integrates new developments in security sector reform and political dialogue, as well as other key points.
Every month, we produce a fact sheet with the most important humanitarian and development indicators for the Central African Republic.
The new fact sheet for August reflects the increased number of CAR refugees in Cameroon (now 26,000), after the humanitarian situation in Ngaoundaye worsened.
