In Chad, where 42.3% of the population lives below the national poverty line, poverty and vulnerability are widespread. The country still has a high rate of extreme poverty ($2.15 per day per capita, PPP 2017), which has dramatically climbed from 31.2% in 2018 to 34.9% in 2021 and 35.4% in 2023. Hence, it is also among the 30 Least Developed Countries in Africa in 2024.
