HNRP 2024 OVERVIEW
Chad continues to face a protracted and multidimensional humanitarian crisis, with 6 million people in need of humanitarian assistance, compared with 7.6 million in 2023. Inter- and intra-community conflicts, insecurity in certain neighboring countries and the effects of climate change (flooding and drought) are leading to forced population displacements, aggravating food and nutritional insecurity and generating health emergencies.
On 1 January 2024, nearly 2.9 million people in Chad were severely food insecure (Phase 3). Chad hosts nearly 1.4 million refugees impacted by the conflict in Sudan, making it one of the five countries with the highest number of refugees in the world. In addition, there are some 260,000 Chadians who have returned to the country.
The joint multi-sectoral needs analysis conducted in October 2023 showed that in 2024, of the 6 million people in need of humanitarian assistance, 4.6 million will be assisted in at least one of the priority sectors. The provinces of Ouaddaï, Lac, Wadi Fira, Salamat, Moyen-Chari, Ennedi Est, Ennedi Ouest and Barh-El-Gazel are in a severe phase of intersectoral vulnerability according to the JIAF 2.0 analysis framework.
To deliver adequate emergency assistance to the most vulnerable of the population, the humanitarian partners will need around 1.125 billion USD. The international community’s response at sectoral level will be coordinated by the Clusters and the Refugees Multi-Sectorial Response, at national and provincial levels, in support of the Government who remains the first responder to the humanitarian crisis.
Localization remains a priority for the humanitarian response in 2024.
The operationalization of the Humanitarian - Development - Peacebuilding Nexus approach will be strengthened through appropriate coordination with relevant partners.
