"Climate, Peace and Security Fact Sheet: Central African Republic"

This Climate, Peace and Security Fact Sheet is focused on the Central African Republic and the series of conflict- and climate-related issues facing the country. The fact sheet offers a range of recommended actions for the international community to address these issues effectively.

The Central African Republic (CAR) is highly vulnerable to climate change due to socioecological challenges, weak governance, and ongoing insecurity, with tensions exacerbated by clashes between armed groups, the presence of transhumant pastoralists, and spillover effects from the war in Sudan, especially in Vakaga and Haute-Kotto.
