- *Data presented as mean % and weighted % (95% CI).
- **206 women answered ‘yes’ when asked about sexual violence, however one respondent declined to provide any further information. Thus, further analyses are on 205 respondents.
- ***8 respondents reported both soldiers/rebel and coupers de route with regards to episodes of sexual violence by multiple perpetrators. Soldiers/rebels and coupers de route were combined based on qualitative data collected by the authors that suggests overlap among these groups in Northwest CAR.
