Action Committee for Renewal

The Action Committee for Renewal (French: Comité d'Action pour le Renouveau, CAR) is an opposition political party in Togo.

After UTD leader Edem Kodjo was named Prime Minister, the CAR chose not to participate in his government, saying that the UTD had violated the two parties' agreement; however, after the partial elections for the invalidated seats were delayed, the CAR decided to end its boycott of the National Assembly.

[2] It announced another boycott on November 7, 1994, over the issue of the partial elections,[5] but eventually ended it again on August 22, 1995, after an agreement was reached with the government on the creation of an independent electoral commission.

The CAR supported Emmanuel Bob-Akitani of the Union of Forces for Change in the presidential election of 24 April 2005, in which he won 38.1% of the vote.

Agboyibo was appointed as Prime Minister of Togo in September 2006 at the head of a national unity government in preparation for a parliamentary election.
