Description
Vakaga is one of the 16 prefectures of the Central African Republic, located in the northeastern part of the country. It is bordered by Chad to the north and Sudan to the east, lying within a region that is rich in biodiversity and natural resources. The capital of Vakaga is the town of Birao, which serves as an administrative and economic center for the area.
The prefecture is primarily populated by various ethnic groups, including the Gbiri-Ngambaye, a sub-group of the Sara people. The local economy is largely based on subsistence agriculture, with communities engaged in farming and animal husbandry. The region is also known for its significant wildlife, including various species of elephants and antelopes, which contribute to the ecological richness of the area.
Despite its natural wealth, Vakaga faces challenges such as underdevelopment and limited access to basic services. Ongoing conflicts in surrounding regions have also impacted the stability of the prefecture, leading to issues of displacement and humanitarian needs. However, international efforts are in place to address these challenges and promote peace and development in the region.
