The program has the following objectives: to build the capacities of local women’s associations to contribute to their own development and to become active members of civil society; and to raise awareness amongst both men and women of laws protecting women’s rights and to change attitudes regarding violence against women. The project is being conducted in the four zones of Bangui, Bouar, Bambari and Bangassou. For many women in the Central African Republic, violence is a reality of daily life. In recent years, much attention has been focused on the humanitarian crisis in the north, where a February 2007 study conducted by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs highlighted the horrific problem of violence against women in conflict-affected areas, finding that 15% of women had been victims of sexual violence.

Credit: Tauno Tõhk/EU2017EE At the end of 2017 HRVP Mogherini lauded a breakthrough on security and defence policy with the agreement by 25 EU member states to launch Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO). These EU countries will develop defence capabilities and enhance the operational readiness of armed forces with a view to enabling militaries to plan, spend and deploy together. In addition, 17 PESCO projects have been announced, ranging from common military training, the development of a medical command, and a EUFOR rapid response core, which have potential for synergy with UN peace operations. PESCO will be linked to a European Defence Fund and complemented by an annual defence review (CARD) to help address European capability shortfalls and ensure coherence between national defence spending plans. In addition to launching PESCO, EU member states also agreed in 2017 to establish a permanent operations military headquarters in Brussels for non-executive Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) military training missions.

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.
