The assessment relies on calculating the consumption aggregate and poverty line and incorporates vulnerability analysis and small-area poverty mapping, including insights for displaced populations. The report summarizes the methodology, presents findings, and frames a road map to support poverty reduction efforts, with contributions from national institutions and international partners.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nCENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC POVERTY ASSESSMENT 2023  \nA ROAD MAP TOWARDS POVERTY REDUCTION IN THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC  \nOctober 2023  \nINSTITUT CENTRAFRICAIN DES STATISTIQUES ET DES ETUDES ECONOMIQUES ET SOCIALES  \n© 2023 International Bank for Reconstruction and Development / The World Bank 1818 H Street NW, Washington DC 20433, USA  \nTelephone: 202-473-1000  \n[Internet: ](Internet: www.worldbank.org)[www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nRights Reserved  \nThis work is a product of the staff of The World Bank with external contributions.

The resulting 2021 Enquête Harmonisée sur le Conditions de Vie des Ménages (EHCVM) gathered vital information on household welfare in the Central African Republic (CAR), including for the country’s displaced population. This report presents the analysis that has been undertaken since ICASEES officially launched CAR’s poverty estimates in February 2023.  \nThis poverty assessment was led by Gervais Chamberlin Yama (Statistician, EAWPV) and Jonathan Lain (Economist, EAWPV). The core team working on the poverty assessment comprised Harriet Kasidi Mugera (Senior Data Scientist, DECAT), Walker Kosmidou-Bradley (Geographer, EAWPV), and Davy Mokosso-Zirimako (Consultant, EAWPV).  \nThe report was prepared with close guidance from Ambar Narayan (Lead Economist, EAWPV) and Clarence Tsimpo Nkengne (Senior Economist, EAWPV) and under the overall direction of Johan Mistiaen (Practice Manager, EAWPV), Guido Rurangwa (Country Manager, AWMCF), and Elisabeth Huybens (Acting Country Director and Director for Strategy and Operations, AFWPV).  \nThe analysis hinges on calculating the consumption aggregate and poverty line using data from the 2021 EHCVM. Initial work on these calculations was implemented by Martin Mba (Consultant, EAWPV) with guidance from Prospere R. Backiny-Yetna (Senior Economist, EAWPV). A crucial step in improving the calculations was the Quality Enhancement Review (QER), undertaken by Elizabeth Foster (Economist, EAWPV) and Rostand Tchouakam Mbouendeu (Temporary, EAWPV) and peer reviewed by Yele Batana (Senior Economist, EAWPV) and Aboudrahyme Savadogo (Economist, EAWPV).  \nMany sections of the report benefited from specific analytical inputs. Didérot Guy D’Estaing Sandjong Tomi (Economist, EAWM2) and Pierre Mandon (Economist, EAWM2) provided macroeconomic estimates and forecasts for Chapters 1 and 2.
