Presentation of TGH
“Actors of committed and sustainable international solidarity”
Founded in 1994, TGH, a French international solidarity association based in Lyon, develops and implements emergency, rehabilitation, and development programs in the areas of water, hygiene and sanitation, food security and rural development, socio-educational, and psychosocial support. TGH currently operates in 13 countries in Africa, Europe, and Asia.
Context
Considered one of the poorest countries in the world (ranked 188th out of 191 countries according to the UNDP Human Development Index), the Central African Republic (CAR) is experiencing a chronic humanitarian crisis. In 2024, 2.8 million people were identified in need of humanitarian assistance in the CAR, representing 46% of the Central African population. More than eight out of ten people are vulnerable to poverty, including 68.8% in chronic poverty and 10.1% of non-poor people vulnerable to poverty. The priority sectors are WASH, protection, health and food security.
While the capital Bangui is secure, the country remains in a state of instability, with the presence of armed forces reducing humanitarian access, particularly in the TGH intervention areas (Vakaga). In addition, since April 2023, the north of the country has been experiencing population movements linked to the Sudanese crisis. Clashes between members of the Sudanese army and paramilitary militias (RSF) are causing an influx of refugees daily in the Sudan / CAR border area. The Vakaga prefecture is currently hosting more than 19,000 refugees, destabilizing food security, increasing epidemiological risks in the area, and accentuating the economic fragility of a region already in a state of great vulnerability.
Presentation of the mission
TGH began its work in the Central African Republic in 2007 to support refugees from Darfur in the Vakaga prefecture. In this northeastern region of the Central African Republic, TGH implements multi-sector development and emergency projects (Korsi de Birao camp) to meet the needs of displaced, returned, and/or refugee populations in the areas of WASH, protection, education, and food security.
In Bangui, TGH has been working since 2014 to support street children and incarcerated minors, through the establishment of mobile units and hotlines to provide the most vulnerable children with access to basic socio-educational and medical services; and participates in the process of family reunification and foster care placement, alongside the supervisory ministry. TGH is also implementing a training and professional integration project in Bangui.
The current team is made up of 17 expatriate staff and around 130 national staff, divided between coordination and the operational base (Bangui, Birao).
