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.

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.

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.

Fields across rural areas of the Central African Republic are set for major transformation with the launch of the ambitious Agricultural Mechanization Support Project.
