The French Red Cross has been operational in CAR since 2004. In partnership with the host national society, the Central African Red Cross (CRCA), the FIU is mainly involved in the areas of health and food security. The implementation of the projects was greatly disrupted by the security conditions in 2013, but the projects have now resumed, on the 2 intervention sites of the CRF : Bangui and Berberati.

The Central African Republic has been facing a chronic and complex crisis, both security, socio-political and humanitarian since 2013, characterized by social unrest, inter-communal clashes, and, an upsurge of the great banditry and’acts of violence and displacement of populations. All this has serious consequences for people’s livelihoods, living conditions, social cohesion and’ access to basic social services.
