Since the civil war of 2013, CAR has been marked by cycles of intensive violence. Fighting between the government and non-state armed groups, spurred by an election process, escalated in early 2021.
MSF sees the direct consequences of violence on the health of individuals and entire communities. There is a severe lack of access to healthcare; trained health workers are scarce, health services are poorly resourced and often targeted by the conflict; and patients need to travel hundreds of kilometres on dangerous roads to reach medical structures.
In CAR, we focus on treating victims and survivors of sexual violence; provide sexual and reproductive healthcare, including maternal healthcare; and provide treatment to people living with HIV.
