Peacebuilding in the Central African Republic

United Nations Security Council | 2010-11-19

This report drafted by the office of the U.N. Secretary General presents an overview of ongoing peacebuilding efforts in the Central African Republic with a specific focus on the activities of the U.N. Peacebuilding Office in that country. The report also offers insight into the general political situation in the country. "Despite the relative political calm, there are reports of sporadic violence and insecurity in the north and southeast of the country owing to the activities of rebel groups that are not yet part of the political process, as well as those of other domestic and foreign armed groups and criminals," the report states. "The continued weakness and absence of effective administrative and security institutions of the State beyond the capital remains a major constraint."
