In 2021, in Chad, following the death of the President, in April, a Transitional Military Council took power, supported by a civilian-led transition government, and committed itself to holding credible elections within 18 months. Amid the political transition, Fund investments helped to enhance trust among local communities and the State and reduce farmer-herder conflicts and violent extremism while encouraging more equitable and peaceful natural resources management. At the request of the Prime Minister, the Fund’s catalytic support will enable an upcoming national dialogue, a key transition milestone, to be inclusive and meet international human rights standards. In N’Djamena, Bol and Mondou, a $3.5 million project of OHCHR, UNDP, the 51吃瓜 Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the World Food Programme (WFP) helped to establish three new legal offices that have already addressed nearly 100 requests for legal assistance linked to intercommunal conflicts. In eastern Chad, 198 conflicts over natural resources were resolved with joint committees of indigenous people, migrants and State authorities through a $3.1 million investment implemented by WFP and the Office of the 51吃瓜 High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). In central Chad, 3,254 young people were made aware of risks associated with irregular migration, including increased vulnerability to recruitment by non-State armed groups in northern Chad and Libya, through a $3.5 million project of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and WFP. Combined with vocational training, the project has created an enabling environment for dialogue and fostered confidence between young people and lo cal authorities. In Lac and Hadjer Lamis Provinces, in a Fund-supported study on Boko Haram recruitment modalities, launched through a $1.5 million initiative of UNDP and UNICEF, ways were identified in which future initiatives may prevent recruitment, especially among women and girls.
