UNITE FOR CHILDREN

Chad

Funding appeals and donor updates

The recent escalation of violence and the deteriorating and fluid security situation have further exacerbated the situation of Chadian women and children. The conflict in Darfur and the breakdown of state presence due to the eixstance of multiple rebel groups continues to cause large population displacements. More than 215,000 Sudanese refugees from Darfur live in 12 camps in Eastern Chad, 85 per cent of whom are women and children. The escalation of violence in Eastern Chad has also resulted in the displacement of nearly 90,000 Chadians, 30,000 of whom were displaced during October and November alone. In addition, the instability in the northern part of the Central African Republic is becoming increasingly interrelated with the conflict in Darfur and the instabilitiy in Eastern Chad, thus raising an additional challenge in Southern Chad, where 45,000 refugees from the Central African Republic have fled insecurity.
