Chad

The ICRC has been present in Chad since 1978. We work to ensure people are protected under international humanitarian law from the consequences of armed conflict and other violence. Thanks to our neutrality, we can reach the most vulnerable people in the country and provide them with assistance.

Our work in Chad

In 2023, we provided aid to Nigerian, Cameroonian, Central African and Sudanese refugees. Around 28,000 people were able to reconnect with loved ones using our family-links services.

We visited over 5,000 detainees to ensure that their treatment and living conditions complied with internationally recognized standards.

We raised awareness among weapon bearers of the need to respect international humanitarian law and international human rights law. Our war surgeons worked at the University Hospital Centre in Abéché and we helped evacuate wounded people to N’Djamena.
