The Central African Republic hosts a large international humanitarian and peacekeeping presence, most of it based in Bangui. Mobile phones are the main link between agencies, local staff and communities, and WhatsApp is widely used where data coverage allows. A +236 number helps journalists, researchers and diaspora members stay reachable by people inside the country.
