Introduction

The Central African Republic has experienced persistent political-military crises for many years. More recently, the humanitarian situation deteriorated following armed rebellions and the activities of criminal gangs in the north of the country, displacing approximately 300,000 people and leaving parts of the country deserted.

In 2007, President Francois Bozizé promoted an All-Inclusive Political Dialogue (AIPD) process to reconcile the many political and armed entities throughout the country, and signed peace pacts with two rebel groups. Following an assessment in July 2007, and the outcome of a ‘Réunion de Concertation' chaired by the HD Centre in August 2007 in Bangui, the President requested the HD Centre's help in organising the AIPD process, which included elements of the armed rebellion in the north and to tackle political, economic and social conditions in the country as a whole.
