[Dateline: N’Djamena, Chad] The ongoing conflict in Sudan has precipitated a significant displacement crisis, with Chad emerging as a primary sanctuary for those fleeing the violence.
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees has documented the evolving dynamics of this displacement through the Projet 21 monitoring initiative, which has been meticulously tracking the movement of refugees across the Chad-Sudan border.
The monitoring by Projet 21 has revealed a steady flow of refugees into Chad, particularly in the provinces of Ouaddaï, Wadi Fira, Ennedi East, and Sila. Over three monitoring periods (April 2023 – March 2024, April 2024 – March 2025, and April 2025 – March 2026), more than 67,000 households, totaling over 213,000 individuals, have been interviewed at entry points and transit sites. It highlights the challenges in providing adequate protection and support to the growing population, which has been met with varying degrees of assistance from the Chadian government and international humanitarian organizations.
The report underscores the need for continued monitoring and strategic planning to address the long — term implications of the crisis on both the displaced populations and the host communities. Paragraph.
As the situation in Sudan remains fluid, the importance of accurate monitoring and analysis becomes increasingly critical.
The Projet 21 initiative, under the auspices of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, plays a pivotal role in providing a comprehensive understanding of the displacement dynamics. This knowledge is vital for the formulation of effective policies and interventions that can mitigate the suffering of those affected by the crisis and ensure their protection and well-being.
