For the past 30 years, international NGO Acted has been going the last mile to save lives. Currently, Acted supports 20 million people across 43 countries to meet their needs in hard-to-reach areas – and pursues a triple mandate as a humanitarian, environmental and development aid actor. Acted relies on an in-depth knowledge of local territories and contexts to develop and implement relevant long-term actions, with a wide range of local and international partners, building together a “3ZERO” world: Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon, Zero Poverty
Acted has been operating in Chad since November 2004 and in the Lake since 2011 where it conducts emergency and resilience interventions with refugee, IDP, returnee and vulnerable host populations.
Acted Chad has more than 130 staff and runs its operations from its national coordination base in N’Djamena.
With a regional coordination base in Bol and a sub-base in Daboua, Acted’s programs are currently running in the departments of Mamdi, Fouli and Kaya, in the Lake Chad Province. Acted’s strategy combines emergency response within the Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM) consortium through food assistance (food/cash and non-food distribution programs, nutrition) and shelter; and early recovery support through anti-malnutrition programs and multi-sectoral approaches in Water, Hygiene and Sanitation (WASH), Emergency Education (EE), Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and livelihoods strengthening.
