01/06/2016

The workshop on "Resilience and recovery, the path to development", held from 29 to 30 June 2016 in Bangui, highlighted key elements in terms of approaches, operational principles and geographical and sectoral priorities to be taken into account, as well as developing strategic and operational recommendations to support ongoing planning efforts. The recommendations will help to better guide the Bêkou Fund and the activities it will support. The Bêkou Fund, created in July 2014 by the European Union, Germany, France and the Netherlands, and since then joined by Italy and Switzerland, has a mandate to support the transition between emergency and development in the Central African Republic.
