The Central African Republic has embarked on one of its most ambitious environmental initiatives with the creation of a waste treatment unit for the city of Bangui and its surrounding areas.

“To all investors, both African and international, I say: do not be afraid. The CAR welcomes you with open arms”, proclaimed Gilles-Gilbert Gresenguet, President of the National Union of Central African Employers (UNPC).

The past weeks have been marked by major developments across the Central African Republic – from new reconstruction initiatives and international partnerships to visible progress in health and local governance.

The Central African Republic has launched one of its most transformative health initiatives as part of the country’s National Development Plan: the Human Resource Development Plan for the Health Sector.

“Europe will remain a committed partner along the Central African Republic’s journey,” reaffirmed Diego Escalona Paturel, EU Ambassador to the Central African Republic, in his address at the Investment Round Table in Casablanca.

The Central African Republic marked the 80th anniversary of the United Nations with a symbolic and deeply human gesture – the official launch of the National Blood Donation Campaign, an initiative that embodies the country’s commitment to life, peace, and solidarity.

The Central African Republic is accelerating its digital transformation with the launch of Phase II of the National Fiber Optic Backbone Project – one of the country’s most ambitious infrastructure initiatives to date. Designed to extend broadband connectivity beyond the capital Bangui, the project will make high-speed internet more affordable and accessible, unlocking the potential of a modern information economy.

The Central African Republic has taken another step towards economic transformation with the launch of the “Forum on Investment and Partnerships” (FIP) in Bangui. The three-day event brought together government leaders, international investors, and local entrepreneurs with a clear goal: to turn words into action and position the private sector at the heart of national growth.

An ambitious public-private partnership (PPP) project aims to modernize the healthcare system in the Central African Republic. It is part of the National Development Plan 2024–2028 and aims to improve access to high-quality healthcare services and significantly reduce mortality in the country, particularly among children under five and newborns.

“The Central African Republic is no longer defined by its past challenges but by its determination to build a new future – one driven by private sector growth, investment, and opportunity.” This was the powerful message by Dahlia Khalifa at the Investment Round Table.
