The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention received in June 2013. It recalls that the Central African Republic had been the first country in Africa to ratify the Convention in 2010, and it notes the extremely worrying situation prevailing in the country since March 2013 (United Nations Security Council resolution 2121 (2013), adopted on 10 October 2013 and resolution 2127 (2013), adopted on 5 December 2013). In the same way as the Security Council, the Committee expresses its particular concern at reports of the targeted violence against members of ethnic groups protected by the Convention and increasing tensions between communities. The Committee urges all stakeholders, and specifically the governmental authorities, to ensure full respect of the human rights of indigenous peoples, especially of children and women of the Aka and Mbororo ethnic groups (Article 3 of the Convention). The Committee hopes that law and order will be restored in the country and invites the governmental authorities to fully implement the Convention.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2015.]
