Context
The country suffers from recurring political, economic, security and humanitarian crises, mainly due to armed conflict, which have left hundreds of thousands of people displaced and impoverished.
Although the situation is becoming more stable, there is still a significant need for humanitarian assistance due to the compounded effects of these crises and the country’s structural difficulties: 2.8 million people remain vulnerable, representing 46% of the population.
Some of the most critical needs are water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), as well as food security and livelihoods (FSL). In 2023, there were also conflicts in the countries bordering CAR, triggering several major influxes of displaced people. The country therefore also faces the issue of hosting refugees and asylum seekers, in addition to all its other existing challenges.

In 2023, SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL provided support for over 80,000 people affected by sudden shocks in hard-to-reach areas, thanks to the adaptability of our teams.
In parallel, we remained true to our commitment to combine emergency activities with a long-term perspective, by launching two projects to revive agriculture and improve the resilience of communities threatened by food insecurity.
We also developed innovative solutions to meet essential needs and ensure the sustainability of drinking water facilities, to bring lasting change to communities.
