INTERSOS Chad

In Chad, the protraction of the insecurity and the pandemic led to a general worsening of the humanitarian situation, further deterioration in access to basic services and a worsening of the nutritional situation. INTERSOS provided multi-sectoral assistance in the Lac Province, where there are many displaced people. Specifically, INTERSOS teams conducted protection monitoring to identify the vulnerabilities in the settlements hosting displaced persons and refugees in the Region and distributed essential non-food items, and provided economic support to survivors of gender-based violence, and psychosocial support activities. INTERSOS also provided health and nutrition assistance through mobile clinics and supported 14 medical centers, as well as a referral hospital in the area with assistance in primary health care, reproductive health and nutrition. Health activities were complemented by water and sanitation access interventions.
