Eric By Berman with Louisa N. Lombard report on the volume, origins, and distribution of small arms in any African state. But it goes beyond the focus on small arms. It also provides a much-needed backdrop to the complicated political convulsions that have transformed CAR into a regional tinderbox. There is no better source for anyone interested in putting the ongoing crisis in its proper context.’ —Dr René Lemarchand Emeritus Professor, University of Florida and author of The Dynamics of Violence in Central Africa ’The Central African Republic, surrounded by warring parties in Sudan, Chad, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, lies on the fault line between the international community’s commitment to disarmament and the tendency for African conflicts to draw in their neighbours. The Central African Republic and Small Arms unlocks the secrets of the breakdown of state capacity in a little-known but pivotal state in the heart of Africa. It also offers important new insight to options for policy-makers and concerned organizations to promote peace in complex situations.’ —Professor William Reno Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Political Science, Northwestern University Photo: A mutineer during the military unrest of May 1996.

Assessment Methodology………………………………………………………..... 5. Sectoral Findings: NFI’s, Health & Nutrition, WASH, Protection, Education ………………………. 6. Recommendations & Proposed Response…………. …………….................... 2 Introduction & Context The sous prefecture of Moyenne Sido came into creation in March 2007, making it the newest sous- prefecture in the country. As a result, it has a little civil structure and has not received any major investment from the governmental level, and currently there is only the Mayor who is struggling to meet the needs of both the returnees and the host population, the latter is estimated at 17,000 persons. During the course of the visit, he was followed by several groups of elderly men (heads of families) who were requesting food from him, or any other form of assistance. The Mayor was distressed that neither the governmental authorities nor humanitarian agencies have yet been able to provide him with advice or assistance. The returnees are mainly Central African Republic citizens who fled to southern Chad after the coup in 2003. Since then, they have been residing at Yarounga refugee camp in Chad. Nine months ago, they received seeds from an NGO called Africa Concern, which they were supposed to plant and therefore be able to provide food for themselves. However, the returnees have consistently stated that the land they were set aside for farming was dry and arid, and they were unable to grow their crops there.
