This is the European Union's comprehensive approach in the Central African Republic (2013-2016).

The EU has been a partner of the Central African Republic for over 30 years and remains until today one of the country's main development partners. Since 2013, the European Union has contributed more than €500 million to assist the Central African Republic in responding to the cycle of insecurity, violence and political instability it was challenged with. Indeed, the European Union has been instrumental in contributing towards the stabilisation efforts in the Central African Republic.

Having successfully completed the political transition period after one of the worst conflicts in its history, the Central African Republic is today confronted with immense needs in all sectors in order to ensure reconciliation, reconstruction and a lasting peace. Together with the World Bank and the United Nations the European Union has led a joint needs assessment in Central African Republic. In agreement with the Central African Republic authorities this will form the basis for the international community to engage with political support and pledge additional resources to the country's efforts at the upcoming Brussels Conference on Central African Republic, on 17 November 2016.
