Refugee camps in eastern Chad are facing a severe funding shortage, putting over a million people, including refugees, at risk of losing vital aid. The crisis stems from the overflow of a deadly conflict in neighboring Sudan, where more than 5,000 people have lost their lives and over 5 million have been displaced.
Chad is currently experiencing a 20-year high in refugee numbers, with the United Nations warning that the situation could escalate into the world's worst hunger crisis. A third of Sudan's population is already grappling with acute food insecurity.
