Overview
Security threats around Lake Chad, most notably from Boko Haram (BH), and military operations to contain them have displaced civilians from their homes and disrupted livelihoods. Insecurity has also pushed Nigerian refugees into Chad since 2014, creating a complex displacement crisis across the islands and shores of Lake Chad. Large and protracted refugee populations, mainly from Sudan and CAR, in the south and east of the country also face significant humanitarian needs.?
Increased clashes between government forces and Boko Haram, along with COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in limited access to markets and a depletion of food stocks for IDPs and their hosts in Lac region. Border closures have also disrupted markets in Tibesti region. However, good harvests are expected to partially counteract those negative effects, affected populations in those regions will face Stressed (IPC Phase 2) food insecurity through May 2021.? 1.8 million people are in need of WASH support across the country. Lack of drinking water, hygiene and sanitation infrastructure lead to the deaths of around 19,000 people each year.?
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an 87% increase in the amount of people in need of health assistance in Chad, from 950,000 in January 2020 to nearly 1.8 million in May 2020. In addition to COVID-19, Chad is also facing a measles outbreak.?
