#Poverty & health in #CentralAfricanRepublic part 1: Seven-year-old Christiana Jeanette has #typhoidfever. Her village, Mbiti, has only one well and one handpump, forcing residents to use unsafe water. The country’s children are threatened by poverty and by a conflict affecting one third of the population. Preventable diseases are the biggest killers of children; survivors face food shortages, gender-based violence and forced recruitment into armed groups.
