IPC Country Brief

This latest analysis shows that the acute food insecurity situation of the Central African Republic remains similar to the previous one, but still concerning, with 44% of the population analysed classified in Crisis or Emergency (IPC Phase 3 or 4) over the current analysis period (September 2022 to March 2023). Approximately 2.7 million people in Crisis and Emergency (IPC Phase 3 and 4) are in need of immediate food assistance to reduce food gaps. In the absence of assistance, the situation could deteriorate over the lean season, pushing people into Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or Emergency (IPC Phase 4), with approximately 3 million people classified in Crisis and 807,000 people in Emergency.
