The CEMS Risk and Recovery Standard (STD) has been activated by DG ECHO to get updated information about the Internally Displaced Person (IDP) site named PK-3 and located in the proximity of Bria, Central African Republic (CAR).

This situation of instability in the country has dramatically worsened during election campaign (between mid-December 2020 and mid-January 2021), leading thousands of people to leave their places.The goal of the activation is to provide support to better understand the current situation at the PK-3 IDP Camp, to analyse its status and composition, highlighting also changes with respect to 2018.Proposed solution and resultsThe P19-Population displacement location products are generated through photointerpretation of VHR satellite images and provide information about the camp type, its composition (e.g. tents, shelters, facilities, etc…), estimated population and density.
