Central African Republic: Consolidated Appeal 2011 Mid-Year Review
In the midst of a still-fragile regional context, the Central African Republic (CAR) has achieved a significant step towards peace consolidation, with the peaceful holding of national elections in early 2011. In spite of the many claims put forward by the opposition regarding the legitimacy of the parliamentary election results, incumbent President Bozize was re-elected for a second term without major incidents. However, this important achievement has not yet brought the anticipated improvements for the vast majority of the CAR population.
In the north-west where the majority of the internally displaced people are located, little progress has been made towards building an environment conducive to durable returns. Similarly, CAR refugees in both Cameroon and Chad await further guarantees before returning to their home country. Whilst a comprehensive reintegration strategy has been agreed by the Government and its partners, no concrete steps have yet been taken in the disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) process, in spite of the strong will of the Government to do so.

Activités du Conseil Danois pour les Refugiés en République centrafricaine 2009-2010
DRC s’est officiellement installé en RCA en aout 2008 et oeuvre dans trois sous-préfectures du pays : l’Ouham, l’Ouham Pendé et la Bamingui Bangoran.
Ouham
Depuis janvier 2010 DRC est basée à Batangafo où elle a relevé un projet éducation mis en oeuvre par le “Conseil Norvégien pour les Refugiés” NRC.
Ouham Pendé
DRC s’est installé en aout 2008 à Paoua où elle dispose d’une base pleinement opérationnelle. En 2009 elle a élargie son rayon d’action dans 4 autres sous-préfectures de l’Ouham Pendé à savoir : Bozoum, Bocaranga, Ndim, Ngaoundaye. Au total on dénombre donc une base (Paoua) et 5 antennes (Bozoum, Bocaranga, Ngaoundaye, Koui et Ndim).
Bamingui Bangoran
Depuis octobre 2008 DRC est installé dans la ville de Ndélé avec une pase pleinement fonctionnelle.

Une mission d’évaluation rapide multi-sectorielle a été réalisée par l’ONG ACTED (Agence d’Aide à la Coopération Technique et au Développement) dans la sous-préfecture de Djémah du 3 au 4 juillet 2011 pour évaluer les besoins des populations de cette zone enclavée.
La sous-préfecture de Djémah souffre de l’enclavement lié à la dégradation sécuritaire sur la Préfecture du Haut-Mbomou qui limite l’accès humanitaire à la zone et donc les interventions visant à soutenir la couverture des besoins essentiels. ACTED intervient à Djémah depuis 2009 dans le cadre d’un financement EuropeAid de promotion des micro-projets. L’ONG a mené une évaluation rapide début juillet 2011 afin d’identifier les besoins multi-sectoriels des 2919 habitants de la sous-préfecture de Djémah. La ville de Djémah est divisée en 3 grands quartiers (Ourou, Fouka et Centre Urbain) composés de 6 villages (Tourombo, Fouka, Centre Urbain, Ourou I, Ourou II, Mabon).

Download the 2008 Needs Analysis Framework in English (2.1 MB) – PDF
The Needs Analysis Framework analyzes the humanitarian needs in the Central African Republic, mainly of civilians living in the northern areas affected by conflict and violence. As a consequence of poverty and under-development, and aggravated by the violent conflict and banditry, urgent needs exist in all sectors. First and foremost, the humanitarian crisis in CAR is a protection and human rights crisis, with 305,000 people being forced to flee their homes. But many people also have no access to hospitals, health centres, schools, and markets, they have no drinking water and cannot work their fields, and many have no roof to protect them from the rains.

According to government data presented at the 26 June Development Partner Consultation in Brussels, only 31.5 percent of the population in urban areas and 26.0 percent in rural areas of the Central African Republic have access to safe drinking water (2006). More than 69 percent of Central Africans lack adequate hygiene facilities.
Photographer Pierre Holtz documented in Vakaga what it means when people do not have access to safe drinking water.
