PartnerAid’s work in Chad targets some of the poorest and most vulnerable communities in the world. Chad itself is not only one of the least developed countries on earth (ranked 184 out of 186 on the human development index), but also plays host to almost half a million refugees fleeing from the various conflicts that surround Chad, with Boko Haram to the west, Darfur to the east and Central African Republic to the south, all of whom have experienced major humanitarian crises in the past few years.
More recently, there has been further unrest resulting in many more refugees fleeing to Chad. This is compounded by the threat of imminent famine, and the increased incidence of cholera and dengue fever.
Our partner in Chad is currently running two projects:
- WASH (water, sanitation and healthcare) project.
- Media project. This is a new venture creating mother tongue health and community education resources.
Please follow the links for further information on each of these.
