<p>Reports suggest that sexual violence in conflict is widespread in the Central African
Republic (CAR). UN Security Council Resolution 2149 on CAR authorises a UN Peacekeeping
Operation which will, as part of its mandate, be required to help to prevent sexual
violence, and contribute to efforts to identify and prosecute perpetrators. The UK
is also looking to provide funding to the African Union (AU)'s response to the urgent
needs of CAR's victims of sexual violence, and to track and report on specific occurrences
of sexual violence. We encourage CAR to endorse the Declaration of Commitment to End
Sexual Violence in Conflict and to attend the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence
in Conflict, in London in June 2014.</p>
