A multi-year, multi-sectoral investment has brought lasting change for children recovering from the conflict.

For over twenty years in the Central African Republic, basic social services have deteriorated following a series of political and military crises. These crises have provoked significant population movements. Consequently, the population in the equatorial region has skyrocketed, putting additional pressure on already weakened infrastructure.

Despite an unstable context, UNICEF has been able to act, with the support of the German government through BmZ and the KfW Development Bank.

Since late 2018, an ambitious programme has enabled the construction of 234 classrooms, the training of 716 teachers, and the distribution of 54,000 school kits, making the school the heart of sustainable development. The programme takes a multi-sector, integrated approach. By acting in the field of education, we also operate in the nutrition, water and sanitation sectors, while involving the entire community. In this way, the child's whole environment is addressed to enable them to improve their conditions for empowerment.
