I recently spent time talking with Elisabeth Roesch, our emergency women’s protection coordinator in Bangui, Central African Republic. Some of you know the rhythm of these calls: about 5 minutes on the call, disconnect, three minutes of trying to get the call back, five minutes on, repeat. The call was painful but nowhere close to the agonizing experiences Elisabeth described the people of the Central African Republic (CAR) were enduring, and what could lie ahead.
