By 2027, the population in CAR, particularly women, children, youth and other vulnerable groups, have access to and use quality education, health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene, food security and social protection services in an inclusive and sustainable manner (UNSDCF, Population Pillar, Outcome 1)

Following the IASC membership of UN Women, request from HCT for UN Women to Chair the Gender in Humanitarian Working group in 2023, and technical support in strengthening the integration of gender in the Humanitarian Needs Overview, the Humanitarian Response Plan and the Refugee Response Plans, 2023 has seen significant progress on this indicator.

By 2027, the population in CAR, particularly women, children, youth and other vulnerable groups, have access to and use quality education, health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene, food security and social protection services in an inclusive and sustainable manner (UNSDCF, Population Pillar, Outcome 1)

UN Women has set up water and hygiene infrastructure, where 35,000 vulnerable people (forcibly displaced, returnees and host communities) have access to quality basic social services, including water, hygiene and sanitation. The health and social protection of the 900 victims of GBV in Birao, Sam-Ouandja and Paoua-Betoko are provided by UN Women through psychosocial support and the distribution of dignity kits to victims of GBV. This multifaceted support from UN Women has enabled these victims in the project localities to regain their dignity in order to overcome their shocks. There is also support in the field of food security and social protection for more than 3375 vulnerable groups. Vulnerable communities in the project areas have seen improved access to livelihoods thanks to UN Women's support through the implementation of the project to promote food self-sufficiency in the targeted communities.
