Voluntary repatriation of Central African refugees from Cameroon UNHCR Also the last week, a convoy of 94 households including 151 returnees was welcomed at Bangui airport from Brazzaville. All these people received, after their arrival, monetary assistance and certificates of loss of documents for adults. UNHCR is also continuing preparations for the resumption of voluntary repatriation of refugees from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon. • Fire alerts in this dry season are becoming more and more recurrent at the various IDP sites, particularly in Kaga Bandoro, Batangafo and Bambari. These fires are sometimes due to poor handling of household fires. To minimize the risk of fire, UNHCR is currently conducting awareness campaigns at IDP sites. This awareness raising focused on the different mechanisms for fire management and strengthening the fire prevention strategy. In response, UNHCR provided assistance in complete NFI kits to 26 fire-affected households at the Bambari livestock site.

By its resolution 2499 (2019), the Security Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) until 15 November 2020 and requested me to report on its implementation every four months. The present report provides an update on major developments in the Central African Republic since the previous report of 14 February 2020 (S/2020/124), including the impact of the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), which was officially declared in the Central African Republic on 14 March. II. Political situation Political developments 2. The political environment was marked by increased mobilization ahead of the presidential and legislative elections scheduled for December 2020, contributing to tensions between political stakeholders.

  • DRAFT Strategy Paper Protection Interventions in Response to Internal
    DRAFT Strategy Paper Protection interventions in response to internal displacement in north-western Central African Republic July 2006 Introduction This strategy paper outlines the background to the current humanitarian situation in north-western Central African Republic and describes the humanitarian response implemented to date, which only partially covered the needs of internally displaced persons in the northwest. The paper furthermore describes how UNHCR, in cooperation with UNICEF, other UN agencies and NGOs, intends to implement protection activities, under a project funded through the Rapid Response window of the CERF and a follow- up project submitted under the Mid-Year Review of the 2006 CAP. Both projects aim at improving the protection situation of an estimated 50,000 internally displaced persons in the Ouham and Ouham Pendé prefectures, and complement the humanitarian interventions carried out by other UN agencies in their respective areas of responsibility. Background Situation in north-western Central African Republic According to the 2003 census, the Central African Republic is a country of approximately 3.9 million people, 95% of whom live on less than a dollar a day. The plight of the country continues to be largely ignored by the international community even though CAR exhibits all the characteristics of a complex emergency 1. The lack of attention towards the multitude of problems of a political, security, economic, social and humanitarian nature would appear to be confirmed by the limited response to the CAP appeal, which stood at 34.8% of required funding as of 22 June 2006. The 2006 CAP sought USD 46.8 million in emergency aid, revised down to USD 35 million in the Mid-Year Review.
