•
0 j'aime•817 vues
The Central African Republic is located between Chad, Sudan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. It has experienced over 20 years of underdevelopment and poverty, ranking highly on negative development indicators such as extreme poverty, low life expectancy, maternal and child mortality, and illiteracy. Violence by rebels has displaced nearly 300,000 people within CAR's borders. The humanitarian situation is severe in the northern and eastern regions where rebels operate freely, committing human rights abuses. International humanitarian organizations are working to provide emergency assistance and support development efforts amid challenging operating conditions.
