Outpatient nutritional activities in Adré

Survivors of the violence in Darfur are still arriving in Chad, the country hosting the most Sudanese refugees. In addition to the 400,000 Sudanese refugees who had already crossed the border before this latest crisis, close to 450,000 people have arrived in the country since April 2023. Most of the refugees are elderly, women or children. Lacking the necessary resources to support themselves, they are sheltering in towns in Chad faced with severe food insecurity. The nutritional situation is disastrous, with over 2 750 children admitted in critical condition in Adre hospital since the beginning of the year, 92% of them admitted between June and October.
