From 7 to 11 June 2026, Dr Mohamed Yakub Janabi, the WHO Regional Director for Africa, visited Chad. The conflict in neighboring Sudan continues to have consequences in eastern Chad, with hundreds of thousands of people seeking refuge, straining local social services and health structures. Adré, where most arrivals concentrate, still faces significant needs, while host communities display remarkable solidarity.

Dr Janabi's first official visit to Chad aimed to meet with national authorities, development partners, health and other sector actors to discuss the country's main health priorities. During his mission, he also visited Adré, where he met refugees and humanitarian response teams, witnessing firsthand the challenges they face, but also their remarkable resilience.
