Vårt arbeid i Den sentralafrikanske republikk

Humanitært overblikk

Væpnede konflikter har herjet Den sentralafrikanske republikk (SAR) siden 2013.I desember 2020 forårsaket valgvold at et betydelig antall mennesker måtte flykte. Noen krysset landegrenser, andre flyktet innad i landet.

Ifølge FNs kontor for koordinering av humanitær innsats (UNOCHA) var det per desember 2021 692.000 mennesker på flukt innad i landet. 172.000 bor i leirer, og 520.000 bor hos vertsfamilier. I tillegg har 741.000 sentralafrikanere søkt tilflukt i nabolandene, mens det er registrert 439.000 hjemvendte.

3,1 millioner mennesker trenger humanitær bistand i SAR. Dette tilsvarer 63 prosent av befolkningen. 2,2 millioner mennesker lever med komplekse og alvorlige behov; en økning på 16 prosent sammenlignet med 2021.

Flyktninghjelpens arbeid

Selv om SAR er et av de farligste stedene for bistandsarbeidere (UNOCHA rapporterte 396 hendelser med bistandsarbeidere i 2021), arbeider Flyktninghjelpen for å sikre støtte til lokalsamfunn gjennom flere ulike programmer.

Vi fokuserer på vanskelig tilgjengelige områder hvor få andre organisasjoner er til stede, og har som mål å gi bærekraftig bistand. I 2022 arbeider vårt landkontor i åtte prefekturer. Flyktninghjelpen jobber også for å sikre varige løsninger, og for beskyttelse og å sikre rettigheter til de som er rammet av konflikt, med særlig fokus på bolig-, land- og eiendomsrettigheter.

Nuela stands outside of her home in Boali, Central African Republic.

Nuela Ngaiboma is a 29 year old woman originally from Birlo village in Central African Republic. During CAR’s post electoral violence in December 2020, armed groups attacked Nuela’s village, Birlo. She fled and after an arduous journey she made it to Boali to stay with her aunt. In Boali, she received cash assistance from NRC to get back on her feet. She lives with her three childre, (two sons and a daughter) and sells food outside her house in Boali.

“When I was in the fields, I saw many people had started to run. When I asked why they were running, they said an armed group had entered the village and they had taken control of the village. I asked those running if they had seen my children. They said they had just fled as quick as they could. I had no choice but to go back and try to find my children. They tried to stop me from going to the village saying it was too dangerous. I told them I can’t abandon my children, and that I’m going to look for them so we can all stay together in the bush. When I returned to the village, I saw the armed men had taken the village. I heard gunshots coming from all directions. There were no villagers anywhere, there were not even any animals. I found my children and I ran with them to the bush until I reached the edge of a stream. When my aunt here in Boali learned about the attack, She called me and told me to come to Boali with a taxi-moto. I told her that there were no taxi-motos anywhere. How am I going to make it all the way to Boali? So my aunt asked some young people from Boali, to come to try to find me. They crossed through the bush on foot and they found me. It was around 9am when they found me and so we crossed through the bush together. It was around 4pm when we arrived here in Boali. As soon as my aunt saw me, she started to cry. She asked me to stay here and that’s why I’m here to this day. While I was here, NRC came here. They provided me with around $90 in cash in assistance. This helped to reduce my hardship here a little. One of my challenges right now is that my children are not going to school. They’re staying at home because their school is too dangerous. The children can’t go there because the school is surrounded by mines. I have many problems and I’m living in fear. I want there to be peace so my children can continue to go to school. I have so many worries on my mind. Because I am afraid. I am worried that what I just experienced might happen all over again. I just want peace for my country. So that we can work in our fields, go about our business, and see our children go to school while we live in peace. Then we will move past the memories of conflict and live in peace.” Nuela Ngaiboma, 29.
