Coffee, a conflict resource. -- The 2017 assault on Bambari. -- Shifting dynamics in Eastern CAR and renewed conflict. -- Conclusion and recommendations
Summary
Coffee production is a fairly small part of the Central African Republic's economy, but it plays an outsize role in the country's ongoing conflict. Armed militia groups that hold sway over the country's main coffee growing regions and trade routes reap millions of dollars in funding to sustain their operations. This report discusses how understanding the political economy of conflict in the Central African Republic can help national and international stakeholders break the cycle of violence
