Context

Since the beginning of the conflict in Sudan on 15 April 2023, the CNARR, UNHCR, and IOM have been registering an influx of Sudanese refugees and Chadian returnees from Darfur through over 32 border entry points in eastern Chad. In the provinces of Ouaddaï, Sila, and Wadi Fira humanitarian teams are working in support of the Chadian Government and local authorities to provide reception, protection, and address to most urgent humanitarian needs of refugees in spontaneous settlements. UNHCR has relocated 42% refugees away from spontaneous border sites to existing and newly established camps. Host populations are benefitting from the establishment and/or strengthening of services in host villages.
