01Assets · The cup · Sovereign Assets

Five assets no balance sheet counts.

Each is owned today, earns today, and can carry Central African Republic toward seven basic standards of living for every citizen.

  • 72.5%Of the land under forest, 2024

    The Forest

    One of Africa’s great forests: carbon, timber and biodiversity that can earn while they stand.

  • 96.5%Of electricity from renewable sources, 2021

    The Clean Grid

    Almost all the power that flows comes from water; the task is to bring it to the four in five still without it.

  • 27,658 m³Renewable fresh water a person, 2022

    The Fresh Water

    Rain and rivers renewed every year: power, irrigation and drinking water.

  • 10.3%Of GDP from natural resource rents, 2021

    The Ground

    What lies under the land already earns; the task is to turn the rent into lasting assets.

  • 5.5mCitizens, 2025

    The People

    48.7% are under fifteen: the workforce and the market of the next generation.

Perfect Nations estimate, to be confirmed with Central African Republic. Figures marked dated rest on surveys more than five years old; lenient measures are marked as such. The strict measures

Strict measures. Food: share not moderately or severely food insecure (FAO). Water: safely managed drinking water where measured; where it is not, basic water, marked as such. Shelter: the lower of safely managed sanitation and the share outside urban slums. Energy: the lower of electricity per person against 1,000 kWh and clean cooking; where electricity per person is not published, clean cooking. Education: the lower of children reading by the end of primary school and lower-secondary completion. Health: WHO service coverage index. Livelihood: share above the stricter of the national poverty line and the World Bank line for the nation’s income group. Each figure links to its source.
